"If you like to kayak or if you don't like to kayak......if you like the tango or if you don't like the tango, Perri has written about a dramatic river run that captures the essence of both kayak and tango and ties them together in a fictional version of his 2 loves. The raw and complex characters reveal the expectations we all have about life. I loved Perri's first novel. "

"Interesting parallel between two opposite worlds of non stop river and Argentine tango, flowing story with a lot of drama suite perfectly for a movie.

Amazon Reviewer Salo says, "An Undulating Tale, November 7, 2010

Perri Iezzoni's first novel takes us down the Lehigh River on an unforgettable trip, and into the world of Argentine Tango. For some, it is a trip of no return.
For Odie Larson, the lead character, it is a story of awakening. Iezzoni combines his knowledge of the natural world and the world of tango, revealing an original sensibility. His writing is often beautiful; sometimes surprising, in what he is able to "pull off," and always engaging in the twists and turns of this adventurous tale.
Entertainingly curious, a River Tango is thought provoking and evocative."

About the author:

Perri Iezzoni has been a whitewater river guide for thirty years. He began tango dancing five years ago and loves it.

excerpt:

Jack embraced the woman and hastily began the dance. He feigned to the left to test her ability to respond to his command. There was a slight hesitation, almost imperceptible, yet he noticed. She was distracted and focused on something other than his lead.

He could feel her ample bosom resting firmly on his chest, unencumbered by a bra, her nipples firm and protruding. A glance downward and he could see her flush cheeks. She smelled like grapes, he thought, maybe apples. When she took a deep breath she drew him into her lungs, melting around him and into his strong muscular arms.

Now he knew what was distracting her: it was him. He was being ‘hunted’ once again but this time he liked it.

Excerpt:

“The passion in tango,” Jack Stueben once said to him, “is not in movements but in the pauses.”

......Like the river, this dance was able to touch his very soul, the most difficult part of a person to reach and the most sensitive.

When he danced tango, he found that sometimes, not all the time, but often enough to repeat in hopes of it happening again, wisps of smoke from the ephemeral fire of his soul would intermingle with wisps of smoke from the ephemeral fire of the soul of his dance partner...then the song would end, the dance would stop and the smoke would dissipate. When he walked away from the woman, he found himself affected deeply by the experience and no longer the same person; she was now a part of him forever.
