The Uncertain Circus: How to Live an Afterlife
James Trivers-painter, sculptor, poet, novelist, screenwriter-is a truly multifaceted artist. In this new book, The Uncertain Circus, Trivers paints his complex, disturbing, and astonishing take on a famliar and ever-fascinating subject: The Circus. With these 38 portraits, the Circus becomes a world of vividly, visually arresting performers, located in a tent of endless existential anxiety. Establishing the Circus as metaphor for our own uncertain world, he takes us on a journey with these reimagined, yet familiar, characters, through dangerous explorations, and risks-and their obsessive need to evoke strategies for sanity with an imagined Circus.
Along with this radical array of performers, and in this new book, novelist Trivers has given us a short story, How to Live An Afterlife, describing yet another strategy for finding sanity in our uncertain world. In a devastating and all-too-real look at our own world, Trivers has brought forth unforgettable characters, and a heart-breaking look at one man's search for sanity.
