Tango Slim — Graham Blackburn

Tango as a metaphor for life, love, and ultimate fulfillment. False arrests, Cornish moors, the London art scene, the sybaritic South of France, Los Angeles, New York, and Buenos Aires at night -- does all this add up to the ultimate tango prize?
Juan-Miguel Rodriquez, raised by his grandparents in Madrid after his English father is suddenly widowed in New York, is drawn into the internatioonal world of tango with its exotic cast of characters.
