I found my lucky four-leaf clover, not expecting what would happen next. In a small midwestern town in the era of the Great Depression and World War II, two sisters are growing up after the death of their mother. At age sixteen, both married to escape their unhappy home life. Unfortunately, they escaped nothing. Their paths, at times, dangerously affected not only their lives but also the lives of their children, who were growing up in another turbulent time in history, the '60s. But close to home and in the lives of both families, you could hear a loud crying out at night. Is God real? If God is real, why is this happening? Mother, why are you letting this happen? Please, someone, help us!

Artist Mark Menjivar was in an antique bookshop in Fort Wayne, Indiana, when he found 4 four-leaf clovers pressed between the yellowed pages of an aged copy of 1000 Facts Worth Knowing. Their discovery beguiled Menjivar so much that he began a multiyear exploration into the concept of luck and its intersections with belief, culture, superstition, and tradition in people’s lives. Menjivar has spent hours and days engaging people in airplanes, tattoo shops, bingo halls, international grocery stores, public parks, baseball stadiums, and voodoo shops—and out on the streets and in their homes. Along the way he documented his findings to create a physical archive that contains hundreds of objects (rings, underwear, food items, clovers, horses, pigs, herbs, rainbows, lottery strategies, seeds, day trader insights, statues, patches, crystals, spices) and the stories and pictures that go with them. Through photographs and first person accounts, The Luck Archive takes the best of these ideas, thoughts, and objects and gives readers a glimpse into the cultures and superstitions of a colorful array of humanity.
