Grove chronicles not only his own fascinating Anglo-Argentinian
background growing up in Buenos Aires but also the political
history of the tango. He writes, 'In the troubled times of Juan and
Evita Peron, the middle classes detested the music and dance so
adored by portenos, the ordinary people of Buenos Aires. Too
proletarian, sexy and subversive. These days the tango has
enthusiasts worldwide, from Finland to Japan, but I didn't see
anyone dance it until I was 18 and didn't attempt it myself until I
was nearly 60.' He also details the terrifying moment his father
was kidnapped by urban guerrillas and his anguish over the
Falklands war.
