"Maggie Nelson is one of the most electrifying writers at work in America today, among the sharpest and most supple thinkers of her generation. " -- Olivia Laing "Maggie Nelson... She's so much better than anything I've read for a long, long time." -- Karl Ove Knausgaard "I remember where I was when I read each of Maggie Nelson's books in the same way I remember a place where I heard important news. Her words come, as though from a great distance, and strike incredibly close. I did not actually read Bluets, I think -- I just let it hit me." -- Anne Enright "Arty, smart and gorgeous meditation on the color blue." Time Out "What could be more invented than a life story that reads like a novel? Bluets doesn't invent that way: its inventions are wilder, wiser (and more true) than that... each proposition is breathtaking." Brick
