Growing up in a housing project in the 1950s and 1960s, the narrator escapes into dreams inspired both by her parents' stories and by her own reading and, for a time, into the otherworldly life of ballet. A yearning homesick mother, a silent and withdrawn father, the ballet-these are the elements that shape the young woman's imagination and her sexuality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'A forceful novel by a writer of uncommon talent' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34717469933612,"sku":"9780349014258","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9780349014258.jpg?v=1759658628","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9780349014258","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
