Suzanne Cleary's The Odds is about chance: crazy luck, bad luck, about the luck of the draw, and what we make of that draw. Through arresting imagery and surprising turns, these narrative and contemplative poems examine the work of holding a job, of making art, of making sense of our historical moment. There is mortality and there is humor. There are references from Angie Dickinson to Edward Elgar. Cleary is a poet for whom everything feels, sometimes against the odds, connected.
