Gillian deftly portrays multiple characters, telling the story of a young boy growing up in the late 19th century. A surprising encounter with the famous sad clown of the pantomimes, Pierrot, sets off a chain of events that leads the boy through the city, from the freak show to the opera and all the way to the future. He meets a host of colorful and mysterious characters that prompt him to question what it really means to be remarkable, and what it costs.
