Summary

What is good fortune? The Golden Coin asks - and answers - this question in poems about youth, conflict, travel, family love, and the joys and fears of getting old. Aboard his sailboat, Feldman draws lessons from the sea about time and history. His gaze is tempered not by nostalgia or longing but by satisfaction and happiness.
