The Blue Book
Storizen
|January 2022
Picasso said that painting is a way of keeping a diary.
The Blue Book is an example of such a diary. A diary, both in words and images, tells us that we can keep in sight the daily sublime. All we need to do is pay attention, with an equal eye, to everything around us. Beauty exists only if you notice it. Don’t let your life pass unnoticed.
Amitava Kumar is the author of several books of non-fiction and three novels. His work has appeared in Granta, the New York Times, Harper’s, and several other publications.
