Shall We Dance?


Perfect for your coffee table, a beautiful book on dance has recently been published by Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Brian Lanker, documenting the huge variety of styles (from tap to tango, salsa to swing) and dancers he has encountered.

According to Chronicle Books: "What began as a photo-essay for National Geographic soon expanded into a vast documentary project, which includes interviews with dancers from all corners of the globe. Shall We Dance celebrates dance's diversity of culture and capacity to express every emotion imaginable. Featuring a foreword by legendary writer, and former dancer, Maya Angelou, this volume is a treasure trove of dance from around the world. "
