Description
Rudolf Nureyev's life was marked by passion and volatility, qualities that made him one of the greatest male ballet dancers of the 20th century. His collaboration with Rudi van Dantzig began in 1968, when he approached van Dantzig for permission to dance in one of his ballets. This memoir is a searing look at the complex relationship between two artists, bound together by their love of dance but also by their vastly different personalities and artistic visions. The book offers an uncompromising portrayal of Nureyev's life, both on and off stage, and provides a unique insight into the world of ballet. a worthwhile read for ballet enthusiasts, this memoir is notable for its sharpness and honesty, never succumbing to hagiography or gossip.
