Livre « Le prix de l'étoile » de François Alu - Robert Laffont

In Le Prix de l’Étoile, François Alu, a prima ballerina with an extraordinary career, delivers an intimate and poetic account of his quest for freedom through dance.

Through confidences, reflections and lyrical flights of fancy, he reveals the behind-the-scenes world of the Paris Opera, the evenings of glory, but also the discipline, pain and doubts that mark the path to excellence.

With humour, sincerity and inspired writing, he explores the links between art, high standards and the quest for self-discovery.

More than an autobiography, this book is an ode to difference, creativity and the freedom to be fully oneself.
