Blue Wild Indigo

In his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, William Faulkner said, ‘The problems of the human heart in conflict with itself alone can make good writing because only that is worth writing about, worth the agony and the sweat.’ James Jennings taps into that underground stream, the heart in conflict with itself, in his new novel Blue Wild Indigo.

a fascinating tale

Jim Jennings is both a skilled author and a fine trial attorney, including experience as a prosecutor. Both areas of expertise are combined to produce this marvelous novel, Blue Wild Indigo. As an author, Jennings uses the characters… to weave a fascinating tale. The strong tension between love and loyalty to another and duty to the greater society is highlighted… One hates to put the book down because of the strong desire to read on and see what happens next.

steeped in the tradition

James Jennings’s Blue Wild Indigo is steeped in the tradition of Southern and Southwestern writers like Larry McMurtry and Harper Lee. From the first page, Jennings whisks us away to a time, 1954, and a place, Oklahoma, that now only exists in the imagination of such talented writers… Jennings, a master of creating complicated characters and lush description makes his characters… familiar to us, not because we’ve seen them before, but because they are so skillfully rendered.
