“After the Wreck I Picked Myself Up, Spread my Wings, and Flew Away,” by Joyce Carol Oates

Book Cover of After the Wreck I Picked Myself Up, Spread my Wings, and Flew Away by Joyce Carol Oates“After the Wreck I Picked Myself Up, Spread my Wings, and Flew Away,” by Joyce Carol Oates is a truly unique book.

The book, which I will hereafter refer to as “After the Wreck,” is told by Jenna Abbott. Jenna's life is completely changed by a deadly car wreck that kills her mother and leaves Jenna injured not only physically but mentally and emotionally.

“After the Wreck” is told in a very powerful first person voice that opens up Jenna's deepest and most important feelings to the reader.
