Summary of Ellen Meloy's The Anthropology of Turquoise

Sinopse

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 I have suffered a reduction in mental acuity, so I decided to acquire some basic motor and tactile skills like pushing around cool, gooey paint in mindless, repetitive motions to prepare for that newly vacated space between the ears.#2 The colors blue and red are the closest in color to the eyes of a goshawk. The colors blue and red are the most profound. They are deep, resonant mysteries with boundless subjectivity.#3 The human eye is capable of perceiving seven to ten million colors through a synaptic flash. We use our eyes’ refined sense of vision to admire the work of Titian or the Grand Canyon bathed in the copper light of a summer sunset.#4 The eye spreads light gently in the retina, across blood and long-stemmed nerves that resemble frilled balloons or leggy trees of bladder kelp. The eyes combine senses and affection into a homeland.
