With unexpected, and delightful, twists and turns, “Waterfall Dance” tells the story of a criminal court case that quickly grabs media attention and astounds the world. During the trial of Emily, an animal activist, her lawyer, Will, manages to obtain a first in legal courts - allowing an ape to testify! Sparks, the ape, is an absolutely fabulous character, and through a rather unique invention Sparks is able to express his thoughts in human language- and does so in a court of law.
Throughout this novel, one discovers moments you hadn’t expected, and characters to delight you. Once I read the first page - I was hooked!!! I laughed, I cried and read with fixed attention.
“Waterfall Dance” is without doubt, one of the BEST books I have ever read. Andrew Quinn’s book is full of compassion and touched me deeply. Never again will I pick up a cosmetic, without first considering how it came to be. Never again will I just ‘see’ an animal, but will forever wonder about the deeper level of their existence. Do they feel as we do? After all, we already know the compassion of elephants to a fallen loved one. Can the other species really be so different?
Bravo, Andrew Quinn, “Waterfall Dance” is a fabulous read - and one I will be sure to rant about to everyone I know!!!
