What's a more selfish gift than a book of poetry? No one reads anymore, and no one ought to read poetry in the first place. Thumbing his nose at all that, Brett Greene's debut book A Selfish Gift examines: the role of poetry in the modern world; the thin line between senseless chaos and divine order; what it means to be a teacher (and student); what death may teach us; and what what doesn't kill us does to us instead.
