{"product_id":"juggling-9781478019602","title":"Juggling","description":"In \u003ci\u003eJuggling\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStewart Lawrence Sinclair is a writer and editor whose essays, reportage, and narrative nonfiction have been featured in \u003ci\u003eLitHub\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGuernica\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNew Orleans Review\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCreative Nonfiction\u003c\/i\u003e's \u003ci\u003eTrue Story\u003c\/i\u003e, and elsewhere.
