Fics like The Knife Thrower's Assistant

The circus is just where she knew it would be. Behind the high school, on some open scrubland next to the playing fields. The familiar panels of brightly painted wooden fence enclose the big top, the caravans with their intricate decoration, and their vehicles. The big top is the same pink and blue stripes of the flyer and from the top fly beautiful, embroidered silk banners. They are fluttering in the breeze and the sun glints off the flagpoles. It’s bigger, more impressive than she remembers. Perhaps she’d just got used to the spectacle of it, but the people walking past look entranced. There are a group of high school students daring each other to try and look over the fence, climbing up on each other’s shoulders, and a family with a toddler who has stopped still on the sidewalk, gazing up at the flags with a look of wonder on his little face.
