Panto Damascus, One Clown's Alphabet.Martin Ewen, an international clown soloist in search of structure, set out to compile an alphabet of experience. Collecting a global alphabet of towns and cities over two decades, seeking out and finally securing the last seven letters took him ten years. Once this arbitrary quest was fulfilled in 2009 he was again purposeless for two minutes. His remedy is this book, a written memoir of his alphabetical compilation.
