Der Zirkusbrand by Stewart O'Nan
A True Story of an American Tragedy
A meticulously researched narrative of the 1944 Hartford circus fire that destroyed a packed big-top and killed hundreds, blending eyewitness testimony, survivor accounts, contemporary reporting, and archival records to reconstruct the disaster, its immediate chaos, the desperate attempts to escape, the flawed safety practices and possible cover-ups that preceded it, and the long-term legal, medical, and emotional aftermath for victims, families, and a stunned community.
