Book Description: â€œThere was never a place for [Isadora Duncan] in the ranks of the terrible, slow army of the cautious. She ran ahead, where there were no paths.â€ â€• Dorothy Parker In 1899, performing in the drawing rooms of Londonâ€™s elite, Isadora Duncan was already laying the foundations for modern dance. The 22-year-oldâ€™s movements were visceral, free-flowing, and expressive; she performed barefoot. She shattered the conventions of traditional ballet and, in doing so, enchanted high society. A year later, in Paris, she met the sculptor Auguste Rodin, whose work proved a revelation, and the influential dancer Loie Fuller, whose support marked the beginning of a dazzling on-stage career. In Isadora, Julie Birmant and ClÃ©ment Oubrerie capture the astonishing life and scandalous times of the so-called â€œMother of Modern Dance.â€ This extraordinary graphic novel takes in her arrival in Europe, her rise to stardom and the development of a style of dance inspired by natural forms and Greek sculpture that would become her enduring legacy.
