Text / Sprache: Englisch, Balancing Acts (Contemporary American Fiction) , "A 'must read' . There is lucid beauty in Lynne Sharon Schwartz's photographs of two irresistible lives." - Dallas Times Herald, Max is disgusted with the Pleasure Knolls Apartments for Senior Citizens, with its yellow paint and chirpy receptionist. Life there is a far cry from the way it was in the circus, where Max was a high wire performer with Susie, his wife and great love. Now Susie is dead and, to keep busy, Max volunteers to teach gymnastics at the local school. There he meets Alison, an eager thirteen-year-old, who decides Max will be her confidant and the ticket away from her humdrum existence. Flow this unlikely pair help each other forms a moving and funny tale, as Schwartz captures the delicate balance of memory, reality, and desire. It is a tale of growing up and growing old.

Lynne Sharon Schwartz writes cleanly and with compassion." -The New York Times Book Review 17264A ISBN 0140119442 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 200. Seller Inventory # 46755
