Description: "Our Lady of the Circus begins with the breakup of the once-formidable circus of the Mantecon Brothers, resulting in one brother taking with him the creme of the performers. Left behind is brother Don Alejo, who tries to rally the remaining troupe of eight stragglers and a pig. Together they stumble upon an abandoned town, where the demoralized company seizes the opportunity to start over and christen their newfound home Santa Maria of the Circus."--BOOK JACKET.
