“Twelve Blue” has fragmented smaller stories going on all at once yet not at the same time. “A drowning, a murder, a friendship, three or four love affairs, a boy and a girl, two girls and their mothers, two mothers and their lovers, a daughter and her father, a father and his lover, seven women, three men, twelve months, twelve threads, eight hours, eight waves, one river, a quilt, a song, twelve interwoven stories, a thousand memories” all of this is going on in Michael Joyce’s ”Twelve Blue”. While there are twelve threads or stories or identities, only some are blue.
Do these threads or lines or paths mean anything? I don’t know. The blue lines may be the ones that represent the stories that are about loss or sadness. This work is a story that encompasses twelve others and does so through their commonality of one river, a song, and a quilt.
