Product Description

•••••

J. Blue is a mysterious man. Charming and carefree, he goes from rags to riches after the inheritance of an unexpected fortune, only to forgo money and power for the love of Lady Poverty. This life of service leads him to embrace fully his Christian faith, which means loving the unlovable, instructing the ignorant, and remembering that it is by grace that we are saved. 

In this new edition of Myles Connolly’s 1928 novel, which features a special Preface by Connolly’s own daughter, readers can again encounter the mystery of “Mr. Blue.” Stephen Mirarchi’s Introduction places the book in historical context and explains its literary structure, and his exhaustive Notes reveal Connolly’s sharp command of his craft. Readers will see more clearly than ever before how “Blue made one believe almost anything is possible,” especially a life of joyful self-giving.

246 pages, paperback.

Mr. Blue
(Ottawa) | December 18th, 2021
Mr. Blue is an odd character. His story of the end of the world is really interesting. I would like to have the joy he has living the way he does. He is a saint in some ways.
