Book Reviews of Nureyev: The Life (Vintage)

Book Review: Under the Spell of Nureyev
Summary: 5 Stars

Julie Kavanagh is so realistic approaching Nureyev, not being under the spell of his character as most biographers do, yet, she puts you under the spell of Nureyev througout the book... and even days and days after finishing the book... You hate Nureyev, you adore Nureyev, you pity Nureyev, you love Nureyev, you admire Nureyev, you're angry towards Nureyev and thus, you live Nureyev... you live in his lonely world, you feel his frustrations, you taste his success, you touch his body... and in the end, you die with him... Such an encompassing book...
