About

In Mao’s Last Dancer, Li Cunxin stole our hearts with his inspirational rags-to-riches story of being plucked from obscurity as a child in Communist China to become one of the world’s most acclaimed ballet dancers. Now, Li returns to captivate readers with what happened next in his extraordinary life as he is faced with new challenges that further test the strength of his spirit and the depth of his resilience in The Lucky Son.

Join Dillons Bookshop and Burnside Library for this exciting event.

Copies of The Lucky Son will be available for purchase on the night.  Li will be signing copies of his book after the event.
