The Last True Poets of the Sea
by Julia Drake
In this coming of age novel, Violet is figuratively cast upon the shores of Lyric, Maine, exiled there from New York city by her parents to recover with her uncle from her high school misadventures and her family angst in the wake of her brother's attempted suicide. Over the summer Violet begins to understand herself, forgive herself, and regain the joyfulness that had slowly slipped away from her.
This debut young adult novel is, at turns, lyrical and poetic, funny, sad, and quite charming. and, like Viola is Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night,' Violets discovers reason, intelligence, self-control, and mature love.
