The Big Bend, the Big Country, the Big Empty. The High Plains, the Permian and the Panhandle. Cowboys, Cowtown and the curl of a killer tornado. A place where “you can stretch your eyeballs.” Where the Hale-Bopp comet, “hardly visible above some smoggy, light-polluted cities, looked like it could drop into the Pecos River at any moment.” West Texas, home to the state’s biggest legends, is chronicled by two authors who have spent most of their careers crisscrossing it.

"The image of eating and drinking in the middle ages is mainly determined by vernacular poetry. However, it not only imparts a very fragmented but also ideal concept of past conditions.

Ungoverning Dance examines recent contemporary dance in continental Europe.

On choreography: ‘Choreography is a negotiation with the patterns your body is thinking.’ On rules: ‘Try breaking the rules on a need to break the rules basis.’ The updated and revised edition of 'A Choreographer’s Handbook' invites the reader to investigate how and why to make a dance performance. In an inspiring and unusually empowering sequence of stories, questions, ideas and paradoxes, internationally renowned choreographer Jonathan Burrows explains how it’s possible to navigate a course through this complex process. It is a stunning reflection on a personal practice and professional journey, and draws upon many years of workshop discussions, led by Burrows. Burrows’ open and honest prose gives the reader access to a range of principles, exercises, meditations and ideas on choreography that allow artists and dance-makers to find their own aesthetic process. It is a book for anyone interested in making performance, at whatever level and in whichever style.
