Very good used condition with minor cosmetic wear (see all pics). Some shelf scuffing and there is no dust cover, but the binding is tight, all pages intact. No writing, no dog-ears.
"One of the most accomplished names in dance, Nureyev was known for his leaps and fast turns that mesmerized the audience. A charismatic performer and personality, he is credited for expanding the audience for ballet. Published to commemorate the 10th anniversary of his death, this photo book and memoir celebrates his achievements and personality. Nureyev's friendship with prima ballerina Margot Fonteyn, his sudden flashes of temper, his dedication to his art, and his defection from Communist Russia all find their place in the narrative. Photographs provide a window on the dancer's backstage life. There are images of him applying make-up in his dressing room and stretching during rehearsals, as well as several in performance. A good choice for fans already familiar with the outlines of Nureyev's life, this book provides a more intimate view of the dancer.โ
Years back I saw a Nureyev documentary and I was stunned by his physical fluidity. An incredible performer who left us too soon. ๐ฉฐ๐๐
NOTE: This is a large book of 12 x 10 inches & 3 pounds. If purchased as part of a larger bundle, I might have to split the order into 2 packages to reduce shipping charges. My average ship time is less than 1 day, so multiple packages should still reach you quickly. ๐
