  • Genre: Religious Fiction

Description

It starts with a neat binding device, the image of the Blue Flower that works into each unrelated or barely related story as part of an extended allegory or metaphor representing happiness. It reads about true happiness being more about what you can do for others, and finding the source of life, rather than being all about personal pleasure. A series of short stories in the Christian vein, some of them openly so, some allegorical.
