Sandpoint, Idaho's own Renee D'Aoust will be reading from her memoir Body of a Dancer at Auntie's Bookstore. Her book brings light upon the art of ballet and modern dance and explores the toll it takes upon the mind and body.One reviewer stated that D'Aoust's book shows “a remarkable clear-eyed descent into New York’s surreal world of modern dance, peopled by the obsessed, dispossessed, sexy, suicidal, brutal, broke and absurd.”
D'Aoust's prose, poetry, and journalism has appeared in many different publications, including The Black Canyon Quarterly, Drunken Boat, Mid-American Review, North Central Review, Notre Dame Review, and many others. She is currently a professor at North Idaho College and volunteers as an Idaho Master Forest Steward.
