Seller: Don's Book Store, Albuquerque, NM, U.S.A.
Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. 359 pages. Reprint of the 1927 autobiography. Pages are age tanned. Blue covers have some edge wear and chipping and corners turned up. First few pages dog-eared. Illustrated with blackand white photos. Autobiography by the first of the modern dancers and one of the most prominent free-thinkers of our time. Describes her total commitment to establishing modern dance as a serious art form, leading the way for other great dance pioneers such as Agnes de Mille and Martha Graham. I confess that when it was first proposed to me I had a terror of writing this book. Not that my life has not been more interesting than any novel and more adventurous than any cinema and, if really well written, would not be an epoch-making recital, but there's the rub - the writing of it! For many years Isadora Duncan had planned to write an autobiography and she completed the work a few months before her tragic death.The manuscript was not in type before her death so she had no opporunity to read the proofs or to make corrections, and the work as it is now presented to the public is essentially as she wrote it.
