  This autobiography covers the life of Isadora Duncan (1877-1927), whose innovative modern dance and liberated lifestyle captivated the American, European and Soviet cultural scenes and prepared the way for subsequent American modernists such as Ruth St Denis, Agnes de Mille and Martha Graham. The book explores Duncan's own life as a dancer and as a woman. It describes important events and issues that range from her enchantment with classical music and poetry as a child and her study of classical Greek art in Athens, through the progress she made in teaching, performing and collaborating with international artists, to her love affairs and the tragic deaths of her own children.
