Dance, Gladys, dance (Nunatak first fiction series ; #31)

By Cassie Stocks

Award winning fiction, Canadian fiction, Canadian authors (Fiction), Humourous fiction

Human-narrated audio, Human-transcribed braille

Summary

27-year-old Frieda Zweig is at an impasse. Behind her is a string of failed relationships and half-forgotten ambitions of being a painter. In front of her lies the dreary task of finding a real job and figuring out what “normal”… people do with their lives. Then, a classified ad in the local paper introduces Frieda to Gladys, an elderly woman who long, long ago gave up on her dreams of being a dancer. Frieda’s uncanny connection with this kindred spirit causes her to see her life in a new way — as anything but ordinary. Winner of the 2013 Leacock Medal for Humour. 2012.
