About this listen
Savannah Blue is a darkly funny, sharply observed Southern coming-of-age novel about loyalty, tradition, and the brutal rites of passage that shape young men long before they understand what they’ve inherited, brought to life in an immersive audio performance narrated by Rachel Simons.
At a 120-year-old all-boys Catholic military academy in the South, Harrison and Delli enter their final year caught between fading old-guard traditions and a new culture determined to erase them. What begins as rebellion against shifting rules becomes a deeper struggle with identity, masculinity, and the unspoken brotherhoods that both bind and scar them.
As they push back against authority, challenge each other, and cling to the rituals that once defined their school, the boys confront uncomfortable truths about themselves, their upbringing, and the cost of becoming the men the world demands.
Blending biting humor with emotional weight, Savannah Blue is a raw, wry, and resonant audio experience for listeners who enjoy Southern fiction, literary coming-of-age stories, and character-driven drama in the tradition of Pat Conroy.
