The Old Ballerina In her third novel, Ellen Cooney tells a story about the creative process, and about how art can and must happen anywhere and everywhere – including a small mill town, outside of the academy and the confines of the art institutions of the city. The story of Mrs. Kamsky is emblematic of the independent voice and the creative spirit – the little artist that could. |
