He has the big dog Bolívar towatch over him. But he'll be seven soon and he should be at school.And so, Davíd is enrolled in the Academy of Dance. It's here, in hisnew golden dancing slippers, that he learns how to call down thenumbers from the sky. But it's here too that he will make troublingdiscoveries about what grown-ups are capable of.In this mesmerising allegorical tale, Coetzee deftly grapples with the big questions of growing up, of what it means to be a parent, theconstant battle between intellect and emotion, and how we choose tolive our lives.
