lucky wreck

Ada Limón

Poetry by Ada Limón. The winner of the 2005 Autumn House Poetry Prize, selected by Jean Valentine. "Ada’s new book has a smart clip of anger to some of the poems, edgy parameters of disappointment to others, lots of personal relationship narratives, conflicts and emotional realizations; decisions, choices, changes, hopes and sadness, a type of survival poetry searching the world, getting into a deeper knowledge of people, and as the searchlight strobes out from the lighthouse through the fog and mist to lost travelers and explorers, structure changes toward an inventive orthodoxy of the heart’s stormy reign . . . bravo." (Jimmy Santiago Baca)
