    An assured fiction debut that finds in the rarefied world of ballet a metaphor for yearning, ambition and desire. Each bittersweet story plants the reader amid a cast of dancers and choreographers who struggle to find in the rigorous discipline and beauty of ballet a counterbalance to the chaos of unscripted life.
