In Praise of Mystery
In Praise of Mystery | Ada Limon
2 posts | 1 read
U.S. poet laureate, Ada Limn was invited by NASA to write a poem to be engraved on the Europa Clipper spacecraft. That poem, "In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa" launched to Jupiter and its moons on October 14, 2024. Reimagined as In Praise of Mystery, Limn's debut picture book, this luminous poem is illustrated by celebrated and internationally renowned artist Peter Ss. In Praise of Mystery celebrates humankind's endless curiosity, asks us what it means to explore beyond our known world, and shows how the unknown can reflect us back to ourselves.

Strange. My experience with both poetry and picture books is usually that the way I start out is the way I'll finish, but a third of the way in, the words and the art started to speak to me.
I love that poetry adorns a spacecraft sent out in the name of science, to discover more about Europa.
The author's note illuminates the significance of the water themes in the verse and the illustrations.

Robotswithpersonality Recommend giving it a look-see at your local library.
Happy to have more Ada Limón on my TBR. 10h
