Discussion Question #19

[Amy]

At the closing of the novel, we are left to believe that the circus is still traveling—Bailey’s business card provides an email address as his contact information. How do you think the circus would fare over time? Would the circus need to evolve to suit each generation or is it distinctive enough to transcend time?

[Amy]

I think the way it is set up, it is probably transcendent. It is always changing, and new things could be created. People are always interested in magic, the unreal, and the fantastical, so I think it would do well.

[Amy]

I agree..I think as long as the kept up the pace that they were going it could last forever...there would always be new followers...it would be like any other circus...just upkeep and updating.
