Synopsis

“There is plenty of historical precedence for long, narrative poetry. It’s a tradition even older than Ancient Greece, but it’s an art that isn’t practiced nearly as much these days. Leave it to Ada Wofford and I Remember Learning How to Dive to make this literary form of art seem relevant again. Written in what feels like poetic diary entries, Wofford’s collection is a deeply personal story that sheds light on those who suffer in silence, and how that suffering stems from one’s past experiences to present day tragedies. With captivating characters, timely flashbacks, and incredible imagery and symbolism, this book is no lighthearted lark, but it’s a winner that will stick with any reader who appreciates great poetry and an interest in the human condition.”
- Jared Morningstar, Author of American Fries, Poems and Stories
