About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Where the Blue Begins by Christopher Morley. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. In his collection Plum Pudding, Christopher Morley included two pieces about an unprepossessing mutt named “Haphazard Gissing I” with a gift for mischief. In The Powder of Sympathy, that mutt appeared three times. In between those two collections, Morley made Gissing the hero of his own novel, in which he adopts three puppies, has several career changes, and goes hunting for the meaning of life (“where the blue begins”). “It was strange, since Gissing was so pleasantly situated in life, that he got into these curious adventures that I have to relate. I do not attempt to explain it.” (from Chapter 1 of Where the Blue Begins by Christopher Morley) - Summary by Winnifred Assmann and Christopher Morley
