520    "Half-Hazard is a book of near misses, would-be tragedies,
       and luck. As Kristen Tracy writes in the title poem, 
       "Dangers here. Perils there. It'll go how it goes." The 
       collection follows her wide curiosity, from growing up in 
       a small Mormon farming community to her exodus into the 
       forbidden world, where she finds snakes, car accidents, 
       adulterers, meteors, and death-marked mice. These wry, 
       observant narratives are accompanied by a ringing lyricism,
       and Tracy's knack for noticing what's so funny about 
       trouble and her natural impulse to want to put all the 
       broken things back together. 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."--Amazon.com.
