Ecstatic

By: Woof, Emily

Set in a near-future London, Emily Woof's latest novel is a visionary tour de force. Centred around the lives of five disparate characters, they are linked by the power that dance can bring to their lives.

As the story unfolds, a government curfew is imposed and the city erupts into violence. Lois decides to hold an illegal 'long dance' which will last three days and three nights, but her decision, she will soon discover, has disastrous consequences for all involved.

Ecstatic is a profound, poetic and deeply felt novel about love, the power of dance and life's eternal cycles of creation and destruction. It is also an ode to the underground counterculture world of shamanic arts and the people who join its community. Emily depicts vital, richly drawn characters in a rhythmic and vivid prose, and creates a striking narrative drive that is propels the reader through this London based novel of ideas, place and people. Unusual and highly readable.
