| New Australian writing from emerging and established writers The blue geometries of the seats of a departing train. Lightning striking twice out of the blue. The rhythm of faint blues. Blue is the most mysterious and evocative of colours. It can signify the beginning of love and the end of life. It can evoke tranquillity or tension. For Ted Hughes, blue is a â kindly spiritâ , an â electrifiedâ , â thoughtful â ¦ guardianâ ; for Joni Mitchell, it is a sigh-filled song, a â foggy lullabyâ . For Henry David Thoreau, the â blue groundâ is the source of â new truthâ . And Goethe writes: â We love to contemplate blue, not because it advances us, but because it draws us after it.â In the nineteenth edition of this creative anthology, writers from Monash University and beyond share fiction, nonfiction, poetry and experimental forms. They explore shades of blue that ravish the senses, narratives saturated in melancholic hues, and poetry that hums with an electric charge of blue. |
