Juggling
Author: Stewart Lawrence Sinclair
Publisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 1478024232
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
In Juggling, Stewart Lawrence Sinclair explores the four-thousand-year history and practice of juggling as seen through his life as a juggler. Sinclair—who learned to juggle as a child and paid his way through college by busking—shares his experiences of taking up juggling after an episode of suicidal ideation, his time juggling on the streets, and ultimately finding comfort in juggling during the COVID-19 pandemic. In many ways, this is a book about loss and recovery. From his own juggling story to clowns braving military checkpoints in Bosnia and Rwanda to perform in refugee camps to contemporary avant-garde performances, Sinclair shows how the universal language of juggling provides joy as well as a respite from difficulties during hard times.

He was a close friend of Charles Dickens, and the two collaborated on several occasions, writing plays and short stories together. Collins is best known for the novels The Woman in White andThe Moonstone, with the latter considered one of the first English-language detective novels.
