Astonish Me - Maggie Shipstead
Joan Joyce's day as a New York ballet dancer are over. She has put away the rush of performance and bitter competition that fuelled every dancer she knew . And she has locked away all memories of Arslan Rusakov, The legendary Soviet Star who set the balett world alight, leaving Joan and her broken heart far behind .
But ,settled into her quiet family life, Joan realises that the past is not finished with her yet : her son, Harry, is unmistakably a prodigy. Pulled back into a world she left behind, Joan must confront the aftermath of decisions she made long ago, choices that have shaped the lives of those she loves most.
