"Amazingly well researched, with details provided in a tasteful manner. Offers a very thorough and whole point of view on Nureyev as both an artist and a character."
"This was a fascinating book, despite the fact that Nureyev himself didn't come across as particularly pleasant. But it was really interesting to see the enormous impact he had on dance and, in essence, to get the full story of a man who is really a legend."
"incredible life - amazing but very flawed personality. How can someone be so selfish and yet so generous at the same time. Really interesting discussion of raising of awareness of HIV in the early days of the virus. Verylong book but worth the read."
"The definitive biography, based on years of research, visits to Nureyev's childhood places and extensive interviews. This is just an excellent book and provides a well-balanced view of a controversial figure. She allows his genius to show through without glossing over some of the narcissism which he often displayed. Great background of soviet Russia,"
