From the Muse Library: Silver Roses by Rachel Wetzsteon. This bittersweet posthumous collection solidifies Rachel Wetzsteon’s place among the most talented poets of her generation. Written with her characteristic wit, incisiveness, and flair, it confirms her as a peerless flaneuse of New York City, a skeptical yet large-hearted bookworm with spot-on takes about culture, love, and loss.
