John Irving's A Son of the Circus is $2.99 at Amazon.
A Hindi film star... an American missionary... twins separated at birth... a dwarf chauffeur... a serial killer... all are on a collision course. In the tradition of A Prayer for Owen Meany, Irving's characters transcend nationality. They are misfits--coming from everywhere, belonging nowhere. Set almost entirely in India, this is John Irving's most ambitious novel and a major publishing event.
