Bright Dead Things: Poems

In this collection, Ada Limón, later the U.S. Poet Laureate, writes about a move from New York City to rural Kentucky, her stepmother's illness, love, grief, and learning to belong in a new place. The poems are direct and warm, full of horses, highways, and small moments of wonder. A finalist for the National Book Award.
