Cheryl 'Cherry' Hendricks is a down-on-her-luck party clown in Orlando, Florida. She spends her days hustling, booking clowning gigs between shifts at her part-time job at a failing aquarium supply shop, while balancing a messy love life (if you could call it that) as she teeters on the edge of bankruptcy.Cherry is sure that if only she can hone her material into a flawless act, she will make a breakthrough in the clowning world and her career will take off. A fortuitous date with a much older lesbian magician, Margot the Magnificent, might be her lucky break: has she found a mentor, an industry insider, who can help take her art to the next level?Written with Kristen Arnett''s classic dry, often self-deprecating humour, CLOWN is a novel about love, entertainment and who decides when business becomes art.
