The title of a great book I read before I started university. It's world was magical. Slender ballerinas, Russian counts, Gold-guilded carriages and the Tsarina. A few of the mesmerizing facts that after watching a documentary turned out to actually be true. This beautiful world did exist in the Russian courts and performed in Paris. It wasn't just folklore. Diaghilev, Michael Fokine, Massine, Pavlova and Balanchine all existed. I wonder what magical world they lived in? Was it anything like the current day glamourous yet corrupt hollywood?
Till we meet again,
