Voda za slonove

Sara Gruen

Jacob Jankowski left his previous life, jumped on the first train that passed through the place and went straight to the world of weirdos and outcasts, and his new home - the Circus of the Benzini Brothers - will become his salvation and hell on earth at

For a student of veterinary college, on the verge of graduation, a job in the circus will be found without problems, but surviving during the American Great Depression, visiting a different city every day, will not be easy. Through his care for animals, one member of the circus will become especially close to his heart - the elephant Rosie, who, due to her refusal to cooperate with people, no one has been able to train until now. But because of his sensitivity and kindness, Jacob will find himself targeted by the violent and cruel animal trainer, August. Augusto's problems will become even greater when he falls in love with his beautiful wife, Marlena, who has also experienced the force of her husband's anger countless times. The relationship that Jacob, Marlena and Rosie will form will be filled with love and trust and will ultimately become their only hope for survival.
