Book Synopsis Nureyev, His Life by : Diane Solway
Book excerpt: Traces the legendary Russian dancer's climb out of poverty in the war-torn Soviet Union to become one of the century's most popular and influential artists. In order to separate reality from myth, the author draws on Soviet archives, family documents, diaries, correspondence, and about 200 interviews with his friends, peers, family, partners and professional colleagues. She takes us inside the great companies and shows how Nureyev changed the face of ballet and transformed the role of the male dancer. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
