Pale blue [sound recording] / Thomas Meinecke ; translated by Daniel Bowles.
The United States has long congratulated itself on being the world's melting pot, but during a long, hot summer in coastal North Carolina, three young people will put that theory to the test. Tillmann is a German vacationing in the States and corresponding with both his ex-girlfriend about the genesis of techno and an African American colleague about their research into the evolution of blues music. Over the course of the season, the trio's discussions range from Mariah Carey to Ronald Reagan, from the Black Power movement to the legacy of Nazi Germany. And as a hurricane churns across the Atlantic, their exploration of how ethnicity, race, and gender are defined--particularly for America's African and Jewish diasporas--will culminate in revelations about their own ethnic identities.
