Not an opening line but indeed very beautiful. Not a natural way of structuring the sentence but the best way to achieve the right effect.

I forgot about this one, for me Tango in the Night doesn't quite come together but I think Lindsey pulls off a lot of very evocative imagery, reminds me of a later Fitzgerald novel.

Very quirky, although I could never tell if my favorite part of this opening was the words or the manic weird-ass chords.
