Book
Swan dive : the making of a rogue ballerina / Georgina Pazcoguin.
"Award-winning New York City Ballet soloist Georgina Pazcoguin, aka the Rogue Ballerina, gives readers a backstage tour of the real world of elite ballet--the gritty, hilarious, sometimes shocking truth you don't see from the orchestra circle"-- Provided by publisher.
The New York City Balle's first Asian American female soloist, Pazcoguin lays bare her unfiltered story of training amid the unique demands of being a hybrid professional athlete/artist, all before finishing high school. She pitches us into the cutthroat, survival-of-the-fittest mentality at NYCB, one of the most revered ballet companies in the world. Rocked by scandal in the wake of the #MeToo movement, NYCB sits at an inflection point, inching toward progress in a strictly traditional culture. Pazcoguin openly speaks up against the sexual harassment, mental abuse, and racism that in the past went unrecognized or was tacitly accepted as par for the course-- and all of which she has painfully experienced firsthand. -- adapted from jacket
