It is, quite simply, where 'I' began.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe poems in\u003ci\u003e Lucky Wreck\u003c\/i\u003e trace the excitement of plans and the necessary swerving detours we must take when those plans fail. Looking to shipwrecks on the television, road trips ending in traffic accidents, and homes that become sites of infestation, Ada Limón finds threads of hope amid an array of small tragedies and significant setbacks. Open, honest, and grounded, the poems in this collection seek answers to familiar questions and teach us ways to cope with the pain of many losses with earnestness and humor. Through the wrecks, these poems continue to offer assurance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ada Limon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43793370349610,"sku":"9781938769801","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/0891\/6522\/files\/lucky-wreck-2755648.jpg?v=1762149539","url":"https:\/\/thepoetryshop.com\/products\/lucky-wreck","provider":"The Poetry Shop LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
