by Gelsey Kirkland (Author), Greg Lawrence (Author)
This is the personal story of the creation of a ballet, of a woman's come-back and of the pressures of stardom. Gelsey Kirkland gives an account of her struggle and the passionate energy that she puts into creating the two most demanding roles in ballet - as Juliet in Romeo and Juliet and as Princess Aurora in Sleeping Beauty . She also describes the terrible battles with her body, her fellow dancers, her morale and faith in herself and her triumphs.
