Serious balletomanes, as well as scholars in dance history and Russian studies, will find that Ezrahi's research and insights offer new perspectives on the balance of art and power in Soviet Russia.
Like Bob Dylan's Chronicles, d'Amboise's memoir is episodic and nonlinear, an approach not all readers will appreciate. But his writing style is conversational and casual, and his voice is enthusiastic, optimistic, and full of wonder—balletomanes will not be able to put this book down. [See Prepub Alert, LJ 9/1/10.]
Streb's dynamism infuses this memoir, and her ideas will likely challenge readers' assumptions on many fronts. Highly recommended for a wide range of movement artists-dancers, choreographers, theater professionals, circus performers, and athletes.
