"Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal." Albert Camus (1913 – 1960)
This quotation forms the basis of Tango Girls, the second collection of poetry and essays by Paul Mount. It is an exploration of people -- how they interact, how they are broken, and how they try to fix themselves or hide their damage. Among the characters you'll meet are a girl prone to self-mutilation, a dying woman enjoying one last flirtation, a man drowning in the ocean, and a boy waiting for a father who never appears.
Interspersed throughout is the passion of tango and the powerful emotions the dance can invoke: drama, tension, resolution, joy.
This collection features "Cutter," "Ocho," "The Ghosts of Last Night," "Verdant," and many others.
