Синеты by Мэгги Нельсон

A mosaic of numbered prose fragments uses an obsession with the color blue to chart desire, heartbreak, depression, and the uneasy consolations of art and philosophy. Interweaving the end of a love affair and the suffering of an injured friend with reflections on painters, musicians, and thinkers, it explores how color can become a vessel for memory and longing, and how language both fails and sustains us in the work of making meaning from pain.
