Author: Rumer Godden

Details: (c) 1987 Rumer Godden; Pub Beech Tree Books William Morrow; ISBN 0-688-07421-9

Verdict: A time to dance, no time to weep is an interesting and readable autobiography

Reasons for reading it: I like Godden's writing and it's generally interesting to read the autobiography of someone you can be confident writes well.

How it came into my hands: I bought it in Montreal back in 2005, and never got round to reading it because I always end up prioritizing fiction over non-fiction.

detailed review )

[livejournal.com profile] lisekit, you should really read this, cos a big chunk of it is about teaching dance, as well as the author's lifelong fascination with India.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
