Another New Release!
On a seemingly normal day, while taking in the displays at The
Huntington Library, two adolescents, Davey and Sarah, have a chance
encounter.
A single memory can contain the power to transform an entire life. In Pinkie & Blueboy, one brief moment between two pre-teens in the Huntington Library in Southern California transforms two young lives as their memories weave past, present, and future into an amalgam of unexpected journeys peppered with compromise, doubt, hope, fear, courage, and love.
Spanning 1965 – 1980, Pinky & Blue Boy follows Sarah and David, two children who grow up before the reader’s eyes. Unknowingly, they are reunited when they become business partners in the illegal marijuana circuit, and finally find one another again within the confines of a Mexican prison. Pinkie & Blueboy is inspired by the romantic pairing of two famous paintings: Pinkie (the image of eleven year old Sarah Barrett Moulton, 1783-1795) and Blue Boy (assumed to be a painting of 12-year-old Jonathan Buttall, 1752–1805), both of which hang near one another in the Huntington Library.
