One of the most important works of gay literature, this haunting, brilliant novel is a seriocomic remembrance of things past -- and still poignantly present. It depicts the adventures of Malone, a beautiful young man searching for love amid New York's emerging gay scene. From Manhattan's Everard Baths and after-hours discos to Fire Island's deserted parks and lavish orgies, Malone looks high and low for meaningful companionship. The person he finds is Sutherland, a campy quintessential queen -- and one of the most memorable literary creations of contemporary fiction. Hilarious, witty, and ultimately heartbreaking, Dancer from the Dance is truthful, provocative, outrageous fiction told in a voice as close to laughter as to tears.

"But I Can Still Dance" offers a refreshing approach to caregiving. Portrayed is Carleen Breskin Clarke's own story along with her solutions for caregiving issues often skirted over in print.

While learning to live a more positive and quality-filled life, you will discover a world infused by the sweetness and joy that the gift of giving to a loved one can bring. Ms. Clarke writes,"the richest rewards of life are sprinkled along the way of the journey and not found at the end of the rainbow." "But I Can Still Dance" can change your life. You will learn to have more fun and have a life worth living. Resentment, bitterness, and anger will be part of your past, and you will be set emotionally free.

Artists like Bill Robinson, King Rastus Brown, John Bubbles, Honi Coles and others who speak to us in this book, are our Nijinskys, Daighilevs, Balanchines, and Grahams. There are so many books on ballet and modern dance. There are still a few on tap dance and they are so cavalierly allowed to go out of print even though the interest in them is so deep and sustaining.

I never should have danced with a stranger. A coming-of-age romance series from six-time USA Today bestselling author Deanna Roy Three things about me: 1. I’m not as innocent as everybody thinks. I know I’m shy and quiet, but like they say, still waters run deep. 2. I’ve been home schooled since freshman year. It was punishment, but I deserved it. My parents didn’t know what else to do. 3. I’m not the greatest dancer, but it’s the only thing I love with all my heart. Actually, there is one other thing, but it’s the biggest secret of my life. One I can’t tell anyone. Not even you. Which brings me to a surprise bonus thing to know. 4. I met Blitz Craven, you know, the super famous reality TV dance star. His show is like The Bachelor, only he’s looking for a dance partner. He showed up at my dance studio after his big disgrace, thinking he could use the wheelchair ballerinas I teach to get back in the world’s good favor. When he looks at me, I know what he’s thinking. (See item number one.) Everyone wants to protect me from him, their shy, innocent Livia. But when we dance, I want it, more than anything. Soon we’re sneaking into back rooms, dancing, kissing, planning dates away from the cameras and the wrath of my family. But I’m afraid. As thrilling as my life has become, I still have a secret. And if I stay with Blitz, the world will figure it out. __ Forbidden Dance is a full-length standalone HEA, although fans who fall in love with Blitz and Livia can continue the series as they unravel Livia’s past and figure out how to balance fame and love.
