Gene and Edward are musicians and live in a warm and loving southern community. Despite the comforts of home, the two young men feel the beck and call of the North. Answering that call is not an easy feat. The fee for leaving their idyllic and pastoral world for the chilly and pragmatic North may cost the young men more than they can afford. If you enjoy colorful and vivid stream-of-consciousness prose, you'll enjoy taking this journey through metaphor and 'myriad impressions, ' layered in archetype and the classic tenets of naturalism. The Upright Bass, Like Blueberries, is a finalist in two 2022 Next Generation Indie Book Award categories: Best African American Fiction and Best First Novel.
