Fiction. LGBTQIA Studies. Tartt First Fiction Winner. Short story collection STEP LIGHTLY immerses readers in the exciting world of dance, grappling with meanings behind movement that define who we are and what we do with our lives. Challenging and expanding accepted definitions of dance, each of the fifteen short stories centers on physical movement as a driving force, placing characters in precarious situations and leading to unusual outcomes. The collection sports a diverse repertory, including a classic yet tragic tribute to Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, a dance narrative designed as a multiple-choice quiz, and a recipe incantation that brings back the ghost of a famous ballerina. STEP LIGHTLY grapples with meanings behind movement that helps define who we are and what we do with our lives.
