description: Fiction. Voices from the Blue Hotel is a collection of ten stories told by narrators troubled by difficult emotions. The characters explore these sensations in a way that is intense and achingly human. " Voices from the Blue Hotel is a concept album, a whole much greater than the sum of its (superb) parts, a bildungsroman-in stories. Wanting what we don't want becomes wanting what we do want. Depressed blue becomes sky blue, sexy blue. An impressively hard-won joy winds up animating this precise, beautiful, serious, and substantial book." - David Shields.
