This collection of poems is an exploration of lives and selves
transformed by choice and by chance. Formally and thematically
diverse, these poems are testament to the will to redefine oneself
in a world of constant, and often painful, change. Beginning
intimately with poems of personal examination and moving gradually
to the world of shared experience, Hilda Raz rethinks the
structures of family and community while examining the impact of
loss and growth. All Odd and Splendid takes its title from a
quotation attributed to Diane Arbus, the American photographer
known for her portraits. Raz's poems share Arbus's steadfast
celebration of the strangeness in the ordinary, bringing us into
contact with a beauty and pain that are inseparable when we see
things as they truly are.
