It is the story of Moss' life from early childhood, including at the hands of an abusive babysitter, an older girl in a blue dress, through to her marriage. ReceptionBookList, in a review of Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress, wrote "This haunting memoir is also a delicate and thorough exploration of the nature of evil and the place of cruelty both in the author's own life and more broadly within the human experience."[1]CNN wrote ""Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress" starts promisingly, thanks to poet Thylias Moss' shining description of an idyllic childhood." and concluded "In her final chapters, Moss exults in her ability to love and be loved. Her happiness is evident, but hardly eloquent. Perhaps she wrote the book to prove she survived. She also proves that what works in life doesn't necessarily succeed as writing. "[1] It has also been called "a remarkably frank memoir."[2] Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress has also been reviewed by Kirkus Reviews, [3] Publishers Weekly,[4] Multicultural Review[5] and The New York Times.[6]References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://edition.cnn.com/books/reviews/9810/07/tale.of.blue/ |title=Reviews: 'Dress' starts promisingly, but falters |author=Wendy Brandes |date=October 7, 1998 |website=edition.cnn.com |accessdate=February 15, 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress}}2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.english.illinois.edu/maps/poets/m_r/moss/reviews.htm |title=Modern American Poetry: Reviews of Thylias Moss's Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress |website=english.illinois.edu |accessdate=February 15, 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/thylias-moss-3/tale-of-a-sky-blue-dress-a-memoir/|title=Tale of a Sky-Blue Dress |quote=An elegant, forthright exploration of the effects of evil on a fragile life--the author's. ..
