Living is a dance, not a march, and Havelock Ellis writes the choreography. His famous late work treats dancing, thinking, writing, and morals as arts, each governed by rhythm rather than rule. One of the most original books of the 1920s, learned and lyrical at once. Life considered as a performance worth perfecting.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
