Bluets

Bluets

by Maggie Nelson

Wave Books · 2009 · 112 pages

What begins as a dispassionate exploration of the color blue transforms into a deeply personal and philosophical meditation on love, loss, and the limits of language. Nelson weaves together memoir, theory, and lyric prose to dissect the experience of acute grief and the unexpected ways it can illuminate the world. This is a book for anyone who has ever been consumed by an idea, a feeling, or a color, and who appreciates writing that dares to be both intellectually rigorous and emotionally raw.
