520 1 $a"Judith Slater writes in a prose dance dramatizing the lives of ordinary people who wonder what they can do to bring more passion into their lives, or at least less loneliness.
520 8 $aThe characters in these stories are a diverse bunch - a floral clerk with aspirations of being a ballet dancer, a photographer volunteering to take the pictures at his ex-girlfriend's wedding, a father playing the role of reluctant chaperon at his daughter's school dance - but all of them are alert to the moments of possibility, transcendence, and sometimes even magic that exist just under the surface of ordinary life."--BOOK JACKET.
