Book Description
As a reward for a hard-won contract, best friends Drea and Joe head to Buenos Aires for sun, wine, and the tango. But their week of relaxation is off to an ominous start when a reservation mix-up leaves them with only one option: one room...and one bed. Exhausted from travel, the two friends figure it won't be a big deal to share a bed for one night—right up until they wake wrapped around each other and seconds away from, well, you know. When the two decide to follow through on their impulse, they protect their friendship by agreeing that when the vacation's over, the fling's over. While Drea's convinced it's nothing more than a mutual itch, Joe discovers Drea might be everything he's ever wanted. Now all he has to do is convince her that what happens in Buenos Aires doesn't always have to stay in Buenos Aires.

Staging Buenos Aires
Author: Kristen L. McCleary
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh Press
ISBN: 0822991446
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
Staging Buenos Aires centers theater as a source of historical inquiry to understand how nonelites experienced and shaped a city undergoing dramatic transformations. Commercial theater constituted the core of the city’s public sphere, one in which middle-class playwrights and audiences assumed the leading role. Audiences and critics often disagreed about what was “acceptable” entertainment. Playwrights used theater to promote their own ideas of sociopolitical change, creating a space for working- and middle-class audiences to identify and push back against imposed regulations and attitudes. Cultural production on the city’s stages revealed fissures and social anxieties about the expansion of the political system and of the public sphere as women became increasingly visible in urban spaces. At the same time, theater also gave structure and meaning to these rapid changes, providing the space for the city’s playwrights and complex publics to play a key role in identifying, processing, and shaping the transforming nation. Plays helped audience members work through dramatic shifts in societal norms as urbanization and industrialization resulted in the visible decline of patriarchal social structures, made most visible in the urban sphere.
