Review Quotes:

"This prismatic volume finds the National Book Award-winning Princeton professor meditating on skin color and the indigo trade, Louis Armstrong's music and Toni Morrison's writing, in short, lyrical chapters." -- New York Times?

"An affective investigation into the many roles of blueness in Black life. . . it is full of archival gems - but it is also a lyrical [work]. . . . What unites its disparate contents is a mood, which is just as valuable as an argument. It is a contrapuntal document, musical and moving, and no less rich for its tumbling abundance." -- Washington Post
