Publisher's Synopsis
Amelia, where did your bones go… Gilbert asks in a rhetorical verse conversation to Earhart - from one poet to another - that takes flight. Lines that zoom, 45 bank, stall, vertical bank/glide, dive 38 spiral, tailspin, side/slip, split ' s' turn, forward slip/barrel roll, loop inside, loop outside into some of the conspiracy theories surrounding Amelia' s death. Even though it has been more than eighty years since Earhart' s been missing, Gilbert writes Lady Bird at the same age that Amelia was when she disappeared.
