Requests:  1 Summary:  "When British poet Amy Key was growing up, she envisioned a life shaped by love--and Joni Mitchell's album Blue was her inspiration. 'Blue became part of my language of intimacy,' she writes, recalling the dozens of times she played the record as a teen, 'an intimacy of disclosure, vulnerability, unadorned feeling that I thought I'd eventually share with a romantic other.' As the years ticked by, she held on to this very specific idea of romance like a bottle of wine saved for a special occasion. But what happens when the romance we are all told will give life meaning never presents itself? Now single in her forties, Key explores the sweeping scales of romantic feeling as she has encountered them, using the album Blue as an expressive anchor: from the low notes of loss and unfulfilled desire--punctuated by sharp, discordant feelings of jealousy and regret--to the deep harmony of friendship, and the crescendos of sexual attraction and self-realization. Finding solace in Mitchell's songs, Key plumbs Blue's track list for themes that resonate with her heart's seasons. Listening to the song 'California,' she explores the mixed emotions that come with traveling alone in a world built for couples; she juxtaposes the lonely lyrics of 'My Old Man' with the pleasurable art of curating a perfect apartment for one; and with the utmost tenderness, she parses out her decision to not have children with the eloquent 'Little Green'"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 821.92 Key Ke   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 821.92 Key Ke   Checked out 05/15/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Biography B Key Ke BIOGRAPHY Checked out 05/14/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 821.92 Key Ke   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 821.92 Key Ke   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waianae Public Library Adult Nonfiction 821.92 Ke   Item being held   Add Copy to MyList
