BLUETS

Suppose I were to begin by saying that I had fallen in love with a color. ... A lyrical, philosophical, and often explicit explorati on of personal suffering and the limitations of vision and love, as refracted through the color blue, while folding in, and respondi ng to, the divergent voices and preoccupations of such generative figures as Wittgenstein, Sei Shonagon, William Gass and Joan Mitch ell. Bluets further confirms Maggie Nelsons place within the pantheon of brilliant lyric essayists.
