Nights at the Circus

Angela Carter

Light-hearted and fluffy. Good and clever - freakishness explained.

The main character is a 6ft 2in lady with wings called "Fevvers". This is a book with some magical realism and many strange words that Gill had to look up. There is plenty of action and drama. It is earthy, nightmarish and the characters are larger than life.
