Half-Hazard
"Dangers here. Perils there. It'll go how it goes."
Full of wrong turns, false loves, quashed beliefs, and a menagerie of animals, Half-Hazard introduces a vibrant new voice in American poetry, one of resilience, faith, and joy.

"Half-Hazard is a remarkable debut. The poems are full of shocking little truths and told in a language that stops us with its ingenuity while running forward with narrative pace. In lines that sound both meticulous and natural, Kristen Tracy rivets our attention as she hides and reveals herself, flowering from girl into woman. And if that is not enough, the poems are bustling with all manner of animals - mice, impala, lions, geese, mad dogs, pigs - doing everything from devouring one another to looking through the bars of a zoo. This book is a surprising box of treats." - Billy Collins
For adults.
