'Blue Nights' is a story of loss: simple, wrenching, inconsolable loss.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The blues tells a story. Every line of the blues has a meaning.
I just thought 'Blue' was a great premise and a great set-up for conflict. I love the idea of exploring a character who's living a secret life and is going to drown in the lies she's telling.
The blues is losing someone you love and not having enough money to immerse yourself in drink.
The blues tells a story in itself. It can make you happy or give you a feeling to swing.
I put a limited time on the blues. I say, 'I allowed myself to be blue for four hours, and now I'm going to stop.'
'Gathering Blue' was a separate book. I wanted to explore what a society might become after a catastrophic world event. Only at the end did I realize I could make it connect to 'The Giver.'
The blues is not the creation of a crushed-spirited people. It is the product of a forward-looking, upward-striving people.
The blues are what I've turned to, what has given me inspiration and relief in all the trials of my life.
The blues is life itself.
I would like to make something very clear: Blue Lives Matter!
