Rosalind Plumley needs something. She's a thirtysomething aspiring artist in Portland, Oregon whose sole output consists of decorative paintings of hummingbirds for the upscale children's boutique where she works. She's coping with her marriage to a blocked writer more interested in smoking pot than writing his screenplay about Stalin's pursuit of an ape-man race while her eccentric family (the daughters are all named after Shakespearean heroines) threatens to consume what little sanity she has left.
When she hits on the romantic idea that moving to Buenos Aires will restore passion and purpose to her life she has little idea just what she's getting herself into. A tango class leads her on an unexpected journey as she discovers the surprising path of her own desires and a new understanding of her family's complicated history. AMERICAN TANGOO is a novel about men and women, love and loss, grief and healing, erotic awakening and, of course, the tango.
Genre: General Fiction
