(3) YA An albino, fourteen-year-old Harold is an outcast in his dead-end town. When he runs away to join a small, struggling circus, he finds and loses friends, makes enemies, falls in (unrequited) love, and comes to see beneath the surface of things. Harold's absorbing journey to self-acceptance is marked by unusual characters and situations; Lawrence's prose is vivid and compelling.
