あらすじ・解説

A real-life vanishing act leaves one man looking for his missing friend in this Kafkaesque new novel from the author of The Room and The Invoice.

Named One of the Most Anticipated Books of 2020 by The New York Times • BookRiot • The A.V. Club • Gizmodo

The gentle, off-beat narrator of The Circus is perfectly content with his quiet life. By day, he works in a bakery, and by night, he obsessively organizes and reorganizes his record collection: It’s all just the way he likes it. But when his childhood friend, Magnus, comes calling out of the blue, the contours of our narrator’s familiar world begin to shift. On a visit to the circus together, Magnus volunteers to participate in the magician’s disappearing act, and midway through the routine, he vanishes. Is this part of the act? What’s happened to Magnus? And who is it calling on the phone in the dead of night, breathing into the receiver, but never saying a word?

Smart, sharply unsettling, and with its sleight of hand exquisitely kept, The Circus is a fun-house mirror of a listen - one that ingeniously reveals the way we see ourselves and the stories we tell.

批評家のレビュー

“A pithy and sagacious jaunt into an uncanny reality ... Karlsson’s knack for Kafkaesque surrealism and suspense is wonderfully paired with sardonic humor and a deeply sympathetic protagonist. This excellent, clever yarn is Karlsson’s best yet.” (Publishers Weekly [starred review])

"A book that fully embraces the weirdness of its characters, and Karlsson is a master of that sort of tomfoolery.” (Book Riot)
