Trust the Bluer Skies Meditations on Fatherhood
By paulo da costa
Reviews
“One man’s work to change the meaning of father—for himself, his son, and us.” —Richard Harrison, author of On Not Losing My Father’s Ashes in the Flood
“A haunting memoir about the perils and promise of returning home and the joy of leaving it forever changed.”—Foreword Reviews
“Serves as a contemplative accounting of the ones we hold dear and the invisible threads that connect past and future.”—Literary Review of Canada
“Intimate and lyrical.” —Anthony De Sa, author of Children of the Moon
“A luminous meditation on Portugal, family, childhood, and time: both evocative and wise.” —Mark Abley, author of Strange Bewildering Time
“Trust the Bluer Skies is a transcendentally, stunning meditation on parenthood, community, and place. Crackling with wisdom and honesty, da costa reminds us that better is possible if we’re only willing to imagine, if we’re only willing to try. Deeply observed, evocative, brave and full of promise. Memoir at its best.” —Ali Bryan, author of Coq
