'A brilliant book' - Mary Wesley, Daily Mail 'She is simply
dynamite ... There are no apparent bounds to Trapido's skill, her
inventiveness and her knowledge' - Philip Hensher, Guardian Sparky
Christina and her saintly adopted sister Pam couldn't be more
different. And when they meet similarly mismatched friends Jago and
Peter, the four embark on a dazzling series of pairings and
partings, outrageous coincidences and eleventh-hour entrances
interrupted one disastrous Halloween when schoolboy revelry turns
horribly wrong. Three years on, as Christina has made it to Oxford
to study English. While she analyses the wit, cruelty and crossed
genders of Shakespearean comedy, the cast of her own life reunites
and the curtain falls on some gloriously unexpected partnerships.
'Juggling by Barbara Trapido is, I think, already well known but it
should be even more so. It has the best piece of Shakespeare
criticism in it I've ever read' - Katherine Rundell, Guardian 'A
joy to read ... Supremely skilful' - Observer 'She weaves a cat's
cradle of wit and erudition around her high-stepping characters,
take breath-taking risks and triumphs against all the odds' -
