Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A megalomaniacal ringmaster, Caribaldi, has a fixed idea: he must teach his troupe - a juggler, a tightrope dancer, a lion tamer, and a clown - to play Schubert's "Trout Quintet," a serene goal in the midst of a cacaphony of one-night stands, laws of gravity, fate, and the vagaries of human nature. Not one of Caribaldi's motley crew wants to play; not one is suited to his or her instrument.
