A spell-casting debut from Erin Morgenstern, THE NIGHT CIRCUS tells the story of a circus that arrives without warning. No announcements precede it, no paper notices plastered on lampposts and billboards. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Both playful and seductive, THE NIGHT CIRCUS, is a mesmerizing love story for the ages.
