The Crystal Ballroom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781760413279)

'Libby Sommer lays bare the foibles of human nature in her finely observed stories of love and loss in the singles dance scene. Brilliantly drawn with wit, compassion and poignancy, the characters you meet in The Crystal Ballroom are sure to remind you of someone - maybe even yourself.' - Jan Cornall, Writer's Journey

'Libby Sommer exposes the secret lives of the singles who dance at the Crystal Ballroom. Authentic and powerful, this unique book will be loved by the dancers and readers.' - Frida Kotlyar, ballroom, Latin and Argentine tango dancer

'Libby Sommer's fiction has wit but is essentially serious with a subtle but strong underlying pathos, a wry humour and accomplished satirical tone.' - Amanda Lohrey, Patrick White Award winner

'Sommer's existentialism is one of the best and most articulate voices of middle-age angst ever.' - Richard English, novelist and visiting lecturer, Brunel University London
