La danza del amor is a novel by Eva Ibbotson that tells the story of Harriet Jane Morton, a young woman raised in the strict conventions of Edwardian society. Harriet finds in dance a refuge to express her passion for art and an opportunity to realize her dreams. Faced with her father's incomprehension, she decides to join a ballet company on tour, where she discovers the joy of freedom and the fascination of love. A beautiful story of love, dance and friendship in which the protagonist faces challenges and lives unexpected adventures.
