Fantastic circus tale about a cockney girl with wings who becomes an aerialist in the circus and tells her story to a disbelieving young american journalist. Really picks up speed in the middle when everything goes to hell as the apes get out of their contract, the head clown goes insane and the tigress attacks the woman dancing with her mate. Then the train crashes somewhere in Siberia and things start to get weird.
Must look for more by this woman.
