Sinopsis

Deborah Deneaux is dying.


But hospice volunteer Pauline Swanson is determined to uncover her story before it’s too late.

Why did DeeDee leave her beloved Creole neighborhood of 1960’s New Orleans? What adventures did she have in San Francisco, and what became of her brother after he joined the Black Panthers? How did she end up a single mother in Chicago and retire as a successful business owner?

And most of all—why is her relationship with her son, Raymond, so painfully broken?

As Pauline pieces together DeeDee’s remarkable life, she’s forced to confront her own. A recovering alcoholic haunted by childhood trauma, Pauline finds strength in DeeDee’s resilience—strength she’ll need when her own past resurfaces and she’s forced to face what has haunted her dreams.

The Dancer and the Swan is at once a historical drama against the backdrop of urban renewal and social change, while also being an exploration of determination and faith against the traumas of life as experienced by two strong, unique women.

Acerca del autor

A life-long Wisconsinite and lover of writing, James began his career in television production and moved on to all forms of marketing and advertising, always with a writing and creative focus. When not writing professionally or creatively, he invested significant time and money along with bandmates pursuing music. At the end of 2003, he and his wife Melanie left their careers, sold their home, and joined James's best friend and fellow musician on a multi-year musical focus performing live across Wisconsin (for the first time in their lives in their 30s). It was during that time James wrote his first two novels, Shrugging and Turntable (the latter very loosely inspired by their musical adventures).Having shook the music bug out of their systems, they transitioned back to careers. It wasn't until the pandemic and doing a small run of his first two novels that he discovered people seemed to enjoy his novels, and he dove back into his one true, life-long passion.He lives with his wife in the beautiful Chippewa Valley of Wisconsin, where he writes fiction, designs board games, and also occasionally does things to earn money.
