Teaser Tuesdays 09.29.09

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading. Here's how it works:

*Grab your current read.
*Open to a random page.
*Share two (2) "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE SPOILERS.
*Include the title and author so others can add it to their TBR list.

My Teaser:

We were inundated all around with tightrope acrobats, puppeteers, mime artists, performing animals—it was as if a circus had been let loose in the streets! Every balladeer and vendor had a song to sing—about liberty in America, about the Queen's naughtiness, and lots of songs about love, of course.

From The Many Lives & Secret Sorrows of Josephine B. by Sandra Gulland.

That's hilarious! You wonder how on earth that assortment of people would all have congregated at the same place at the same time. Great teaser!

My own teaser is at Bookishgal.
