From neopagan witch to unfaithful wife, Odd Nest dissects the life of Patricia, the poet's grandmother, from the 1940s to the 2020s. Many themes emerge from this exploration: spirituality, life and death, aging, sex, domesticity, infidelity, abortion, teenage pregnancy, being an outsider, abuse, and the natural world. Through dozens of revelatory interviews between grandson and grandmother, Odd Nest is an exercise in persona and storytelling.
