Description

2024 Reprint of the 1928 Edition. Blue is a young man who decides to take Christianity seriously, not as a chore but as a challenge. He spends his inherited wealth almost as soon as he gets it. He lives in a packing box on a New York City rooftop. He embraces the poor as his best friends and wisest companions, distrusts the promises of technology (except for the movies), and is fascinated by anything involving the wide expanse of God's universe. He is the ultimate free spirit, it seems; but what is the source and purpose of his freedom? This novel about a contemporary St. Francis figure has delighted and inspired countless readers since it was first published in 1928.

MR. BLUE will introduce you to a most extraordinary character indeed;

"Mr. Blue is different, so gloriously different that dull-witted people would think him fantastic and even grotesque. He is a mystic, he has visions, he dreams glorious projects, he flies kites, squanders a fortune, exults in brass bands, lives in a packing box, preaches God and love, and mercy, and practices extreme charity. Blue is happy, hilariously and outrageously happy, so happy that he is an affront to the normal man who allows poverty or discomfort of business to make him unhappy. In Blue, Mr. Connolly has created a magnificent character. He has described Blue with a riot of imagination and in language that glints and sparkles."-- America

"Myles Connolly has achieved in MR. BLUE the biography of a human paradox ... a sort of modern St. Francis." - New York Times
