[Tango-L] New Book: The Church of Tango: a Memoir

[NANCY]

This is a book about tango but it is much more than that.  It is about dancing in more than four countries.  It is about flamenco and salsa and son and belly dancing.  It is about family and great love.  It is about leaving everything familiar and going alone to another country with a different language and different culture not once, but three times.  It is about the search for solace and survival that is ultimately found in tango.
 
If you have met the author, Cherie, you will be amazed to learn of what she has suffered because the many who have met her in BsAS or in California or in her travels only know her as a positive, generous, friendly person.  Proof of the healing power of  el abrazo tanguero.
 
Book now available on Amazon and soon to be on Kindle.

Hello listeros!

Just to let you all know that my memoir, The Church of Tango, was published on Saturday.

Not a typical tango book per se, nor a tango history, it is my passionate memoir of tragedy and adventure, lust and music, romance and tango, that takes place in four countries. It is my personal story of loss and survival and how I ended up living and teaching tango in Buenos Aires. (I was tempted to subtitle it Death, Dance, Destiny but came to my senses in time.)

It will shortly be available on Amazon in paper, and also in a Kindle version.
For now it can be ordered directly from the printer:
