11 short stories from a winner of a Best of Ohio Writers Award from Ohio Writer Magazine. "Loranne Temple's extraordinarily graceful stories are as inviting as a cool drink on a hot day. And like certain kinds of cool drinks, the stories in Coming To You From the Blue Room are deceptive, revealing their power only after we try to move away from them. Focusing on characters who come to understand themselves through the communities they live in, these stories balance sometimes devastating vision with a saving compassion, and are filled with a great wisdom about the ways life carries us away. A pleasure to read, these stories linger long in the mind" - Erin McGraw, author of The Baby Tree and The Good Life.
