"A long hallway, a parking lot, just begged for a dance... like it wanted to be filled.. and I wanted to put dance in it."
Set in Manhattan at the School of American Ballet, this remarkable graphic-novel style book explores the molding and training of a pre-professional dancer during the last years of George Balanchine's life, when the greatest dance stars were defecting from Russia to join his company, The New York City Ballet.
Leading themes include the love of movement, the dreams and realities of becoming a ballerina, and with it all, the life of a girl growing up - all expressed in an immediate, contemporary and engaging format.
