Blue Light is a collection of found poetry, lyrics, stories, and diary entries that chronicles the life, creativity, and soul of a complex man. In writing that is vulnerable, witty, and profound, Harvey bares his heart and soul on the page as he delves into the themes of his Italian family roots, childhood memories, friendships, passions, demons, losses, and loves. These are but some of the intertwined threads that shaped Harvey, the golden boy whose childhood traumas eventually led him to seek solace in alcohol and drugs. His substance use rapidly escalated to a dependency on opioids, in all available forms, that almost took his life on several occasions.

In his own words, we hear the voice of a man expressing the darkness of despair and the blue-light elation at finding sobriety. This deeply moving, personal history is one which everyone struggling with the helplessness and the shame that shrouds addiction can relate to and find hope.
