Hug and Let Go: Poems of Argentine Tango

In this intimate volume, Dimitris, the author of "Tangofulness," captures the profound and often unspoken language of Argentine Tango, translating the dance's passion, connection, and fleeting beauty into lyrical verse.

Experience the silent conversations across the dance floor, where a nod becomes an invitation and a step forward, an answer. Feel the weight of unspoken emotions shared in an embrace, the delicate balance of leading with kindness and following with honesty. These poems delve into the themes of connection, empathy, trust, and the poignant act of letting go, all within the rich and sensual world of tango.

More than just poems about dance, "Hug and Let Go" explores the universal human need for connection, the power of non-verbal understanding, and the moments of shared experience that resonate deep within us.

Discover the beauty in the ephemeral, the comfort in being seen without explanation, and the peace that comes with both holding on and releasing. "Hug and Let Go" is a tender exploration of human connection, set to the rhythm of one of the world's most passionate dances.
