The Barnum Museum stories

The Barnum Museum is a combination waxworks, masked ball, and circus sideshow masquerading as a collection of stories. Within its pages, note such exhibits as: a study of the strategies used by the participants in the game of Clue; a dilettante who constructs an imaginary woman, and loses her to an imaginary man; and a legendary magician so skilled at sleight-of-hand that he is pursued by police for the crime of erasing the line between the real and the conjured. Ingeniously written, each exhibit in The Barnum Museum—including the story upon which the movie The Illusionist was based—will compe.

  • "Quand un musée est si captivant que tous les habitants de la ville viennent s'y perdre inexorablement, quand un jeune garçon passe à travers l'écran d'un cinéma et y découvre un monde fascinant, l'auteur bouscule les limites entre réel et imaginaire jusqu'à effacer l'ultime frontière entre l'art et la vie."
