The Odds is a collection of poems about how we are all juggling with fate, or luck and chance, both good and bad — and sometimes grab the wrong end of the lighted torch.Winner of the 2018/19 International Book & Pamphlet CompetitionJudged by Neil Astley, Michael Schmidt and Amy Wack

Emma Simon's wide-ranging, work explores how strange and surreal the everyday can be and how real life and stories tend to bleed into one another. These poems - mysterious, mythic, magical - remain deeply accessible, while being witty and serious. An unforgettable debut collection.
