Book Description Eight O'Clock Blues brings to light the mental and emotional cruelty imposed on an automotive giant's employees during the late 70s and focuses on the trials and tribulations of Sophia, who gets caught up in the vicious world of automotive bureaucracy, and is plagued in her personal life with her inability to find true love. Reared by religious parents in a modest environment, Sophia is at odds with people who are governed by stature and wealth rather than ethics.

An adroitly written novel, set in the 1970s May 16, 2002 Based on a true story, Candy Stevens' Eight O'clock Blues is an adroitly written novel, set in the 1970s, and centers on Sophia, a young, religious, middle-class woman who takes a job at an automotive giant and has her illusions of corporate benevolence shattered. Daring to challenge the authority of an entity governed by greed, Sophia becomes embroiled in a test of wills that threatens to crush her. Eight O'clock Blues is a gripping, involving saga of a white-collar worker pitted agains devious and endemic corporate mismangement.
