The Traveling Triple-C Incorporeal Circus

Chelsea is determined to make it to her brother’s wedding. And she’s not going to let the fact that she’s been dead for two years stop her.

Joining with her mime friend from a New York City park and her ghostly mentor with forty years of afterlife under her belt, the three women set out on foot for San Francisco. Along the way, they are faced with joy, sorrow, and the haunting surprises of the open road. This humorous and lightly macabre journey explores relationships, personal burdens, and what it means to keep moving, even when your heartbeat has stopped.

"A marvelous, surprising ghost story that celebrates the power of theatre to lift spirits and save lives. McFall's novel is an exquisite meditation on embracing the past and letting it go. This book will haunt you!" —Andrea Hairston, award-winning author of Will Do Magic for Small Change and Redwood and Wildfire

"A delightfully queer (in all possible senses of the word) and unexpected road trip story about friendship, loss, love, and the many kinds of family. I laughed, I cried, I cheered—it’s a show like no other." —Alex Wells, award-winning author of Hunger Makes the Wolf

"I copy-edited...The Traveling Triple-C Incorporeal Circus and was pleased to do so because I think it's one of the outstanding fantasy books of 2019...an on-the-road feminist version of Peter S. Beagle's A Fine and Private Place. I highly recommend this book, particularly to people who love literary fantasy."—Cat Rambo, award-winning author of You Sexy Thing

"Immensely charming…The Traveling Triple-C Incorporeal Circus brings a lot of ideas to the table and manages to pay all of them off in satisfying fashion. It’s weird, lovely, dark, and familiar." —San Francisco Book Review
