It’s 1899 and all of Europe is agape at the arrival of the new century. The world crackles with possibilities and people dance to the irresistible rhythms of money, sex, love and freedom. Swinging above them all is a showbiz sensation: a fierce, vulgar, pant-droppingly sexy trapeze artist called Fevvers.

    Have you ever stared stark failure in the face, young man? The trick is, to outstare it!

    "It's not the human 'soul' that must be forged on the anvil of history but the anvil itself must be changed in order to change humanity. Then we might see, if not 'perfection', then something a little better, or, not to raise too many false hopes, a little less bad."
