This was a fun book.
Jacob Jankowski is two ages during this book. Sometimes he's a 90 (or 93) year old man, but for the majority, he's 23. His parents die and since he has nothing after they do, he joins a circus. Considering that he's 23 in 1931, it's the original understanding of join the circus. The place for all the misfits, people who don't belong anywhere, the freaks.
He's lost. But he becomes the circus vet and meets many colorful characters. But none of them compare to Marlena. If only he knew how she was going to affect him and what he would be willing to do for her.
I hope the movie does this book justice.
