It is all in the lyrics of ?Let?s Face the Music and Dance? by Ella Fitzgerald. To me the novel and the song are so in tune is like watching a beautiful dance from the first tune to the last. I read the last chapter to a very slow tune with endless lyrics, I did not wanted it to end. Spellbinding, rhythmic, love in its essence. I love the way the dance came to an end after well synchronized steps; all expert dancers in prime choreography. Bravo Willa (Marcia)!
