Annotation |
Celebrations of the three primary colors: red, yellow, and blue. Each essay combines anecdotes, observations, literary references, and everyday associations. "Blue is a mysterious color, hue of illness and nobility, the rarest color in nature". Yellow has a thousand meanings from cowardice to third prize to Easter, and is enigmatic. Red is Christmas, cheap whiskey, a child's ball, chorizo.
