4.9/5 (23169 ratings)

Description:Blue (short for Bluford) Calhoun is compelled to examine his past, from the mid-1950s to the present. For Blue, the '50s were a time when the world was in order and he was, finally, at peace; a recovering alcoholic, he had been sober for nineteen months; his marriage and family life were more satisfying than ever; even his job (selling musical instruments) was the best he had ever had. "But then one day fell down on me from a clear spring sky, no word of warning. It tore the ground from under my feet, and everything around me shook the way a mad dog shakes a howling child."April 28, 1956, was the day Blue met a sixteen-year-old girl named Luna. And for the next three decades, their love has borne consequences of the most shattering—and ultimately, perhaps, healing—kind for everyone they know. As Blue recounts the years and their events for us—fervently, tenderly, knowing full well his own deep responsibility—we are made witnesses to a story of classic dimensions, a story of love and suffering, family and friendship, death and redemption.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
