Reseña del libro "Bassment Deep (en Inglés)"
A freelance journalist, Margo Cassaneto is contracted to do a feature story on an up and coming jazz musician and the members of his five-piece jazz ensemble. Having been hand-picked for this impromptu and prize assignment, she finds herself rushing off to join the talented musician and his ensemble, who are presently on tour. Her hope and her assignment is to get the musical scoop of the year. Margo immediately puts her proven skills to work as an interviewer to gain Ma'Kentu's trust. Before long he finds himself sharing, not only his professional life, but personal things he would never have shared with anyone else. Because of their growing bond and her respect for him as a musician, composer, and man, she begins to see him as being more than just a passing front page human-interest story. Ma'Kentu, a favorite to win this year's Grammy Award in the best new jazz group category, finds Margo as exciting and appealing than many of the jazzy tunes he has written. It has been a while since he has met a woman with such beauty, charm, integrity, and grace. And for a while, life is blissful for them, as each day on tour promises new experiences. Spring is in the air, no doubt. And so is love. From afternoon walks in America's oldest city, St Augustine, Florida, to sharing cocktail drinks at the trendiest nightclubs of Baltimore, Maryland, to chauffeured-driven limousine rides through the granite and concrete maze of government buildings in the city of Washington, DC, the two find themselves carrying on as though they have a new lease on life. Such is love. But love and sometimes our past have a way of making us forget about the harsh realities of life and the skeletons in our closets, and in time, we all come back down to earth. It is no different for Margo and Ma'Kentu. In time, the two discover there is a lot more going on between them than the love they share. Some of it has to do with their own personal skeletons and some of it has to do with their strong political views. Both issues produce great tension between them. The question is will they ever be able to return harmony to their troubled relationship once it goes awry. Come, join the tour.
