Review of The Business of Fancydancing (2002) by Sara W — 16 Apr 2012
I liked it. I've often pondered the whole,"Big fish in a little pond, or small fish in a big pond" question. And even the question about cross-cultural acceptance. Do I want to move to this place and be mostly the image of what they think I should be and play their song and dance for them, or I should I just say "fuck you and keep your damn culture.
I don't want to be somewhere that I'm only seen for What I am and not who I am." I still haven't decided, but I have my suspicions that I'll end up just like Seymour. The martyr/outcast on one end and the selfish traitor on the other.
As for the pond question- if it's toxic, leave. You gotta be a happy fish.
