through these workshops that Lurie developed a way for writers to shape the messiness of life into a clear narrative and through that shaping, gain insight into their own personal evolutions.Great Space of Desire covers Lurie’s own personal evolution – from growing up in a biracial and bi-religious family in New York City in the ‘60s and ‘70s, to losing her father at a very young age, living in an orphanage, and an intricately complicated relationship with her ballerina mother and with dance itself. Lurie, through her own messy and complex life chapters, shows readers and writers alike how to look at their lives for story and perception.While sharing her own stories, Lurie invites readers to explore and write about their own life experience in worksheets such as Hidden Inheritance, Personal Challenges/Writing Deep Emotion, Family Mosaic, Writing About Loss and Personal Transformation, Boundaries Real and Imagined and many more.In Great Space of Desire, writers of all levels will find a treasure-trove of stories and exercises designed to help them understand both the craft of writing and their own individual creative process. Through these unique explorations into personal reality, Great Space of Desire promises to help readers tap into their own personal evolution.
