Mark Morris , written with the choreographer's full cooperation, is part biography, part critical study. It describes how he has lived and how he turns his life - and music, narrative, and tradition - into dance, and it discusses how to look at his dances.
A gushing account of Morris's choreographic work. Acocella brings many of Morris's life experiences and personality quirks to bear on a detailed series of dance analyses. Modern dance is harder than ballet for me to watch because I don't know the vocabulary -- indeed, the fun of it is that there is no set vocabulary. This book helped me better appreciate Morris's classical, inclusive and uplifting vision, as expressed through dance.
