From a stunning new voice in YA literature comes an epic, utterly unforgettable contemporary novel about a lost shipwreck, a missing piece of family history, and weathering the storms of life.

"Profound and page-turning."
--Madeline Miller, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Circe

The Larkin family isn't just lucky-they persevere. At least that's what Violet and her younger brother, Sam, were always told. When the Lyric sank off the coast of Maine, their great-great-great-grandmother didn't drown like the rest of the passengers. No, Fidelia swam to shore, fell in love, and founded Lyric, Maine, the town Violet and Sam returned to every summer.

But wrecks seem to run in the family: Tall, funny, musical Violet can't stop partying with the wrong people. And, one beautiful summer day, brilliant, sensitive Sam attempts to take his own life.

Shipped back to Lyric while Sam is in treatment, Violet is haunted by her family's missing piece-the lost shipwreck she and Sam dreamed of discovering when they were children. Desperate to make amends, Violet embarks on a wildly ambitious mission: locate the Lyric, lain hidden in a watery grave for over a century.

She finds a fellow wreck hunter in Liv Stone, an amateur local historian whose sparkling intelligence and guarded gray eyes make Violet ache in an exhilarating new way. Whether or not they find the Lyric, the journey Violet takes-and the bridges she builds along the way-may be the start of something like survival.

Epic, funny, and sweepingly romantic, The Last True Poets of the Sea is an astonishing debut about the strength it takes to swim up from a wreck.

The last true poets of the sea

Esse livro é maravilhoso,fala muito sobre família e problemas familiares.Eu amei os personagens e o romance foi muito bom mas bem demorado,oque eu gostei muito porque deu para construir uma relação muito boa entre as personagens antes de um relacionamento,o jeito como elas foram se conhecendo e se apegando uma a outra foi simples mas maravilhoso.Os problemas da Violet não foram resolvidos muito bem no livro mas acho que depois como falam que ela começa a fazer terapia deixa a entender que ela vai trabalhar neles.O relacionamento do irmão com a Violet foi bem resolvido e muito legal de se ler.Enfim esse livro foi incrível e recomendo muito a leitura,quando você começa a ler não consegue mais parar.
