of the
blue dress
BY MARILY SASOTA GAYETA
STORY DESCRIPTION
Four women. Four continents. Four countries.
One blue dress.
The Saga of the Blue Dress is the story of four women—a demented seamstress, a courageous art enthusiast, a scarred teenager, and a naïve, young mistress—who have never met each other, and yet, are connected by one thing: a blue dress. This short novel follows the lives of these four women. As the dress is passed from one woman to the next, it becomes a silent witness to fear and courage, love and betrayal, and survival and death.
The Saga of the Blue Dress is a woman’s journey.
