ABOUT
THE BOOK
|
| The
exotic rhythms of Lloyd Jones' new novel move from the West Coast of New
Zealand to Buenos Aires to Sydney; from the closing days of the First World
War to the present time and back over a series of heart-wrenching journeys
in between. Taking his cue from the tango, Jones has written a sensual novel
that is a scintillating exposition on the ways some of us may fall in love. |
| ABOUT THE AUTHOR |
| Lloyd Jones's novel, The Book of Fame, won the Deutz Medal for Fiction at the Montana New Zealand Book Awards in 2001. His other books include the controversial Biografi (judged one of the best books of the year by the New York Times) and the provocative and disturbing Choo Woo, also published to critical acclaim. |
