A multi-form collection about unstable systems and uncertain futures from the author of Path of Totality, a New York Times Best Poetry Book of 2022
In Risk Tolerance, Niina Pollari brings her sharp attention to the intimate vulnerabilities and inherent dangers of family, nature, finance, and health. Across these poems, Pollari reflects on personal choices and consequences within these frameworks and the ways that the resulting circumstances always, for better or worse, require more choices.
