Description
"This touching fable tells of Auguste, a famous clown who could make people laugh but who sought to impart to his audiences a lasting joy. Originally inspired by a series of circus and clown drawings by the cubist painter Femand Léger, Miller eventually used his own decorations to accompany the text in their stead. 'Undoubtedly, ' he says in his explanatory epilogue, 'it is the strangest story I have yet written'."--Page 4 of cover.
