What is this book about?
Digest is a poetry collection that mixes free verse and prose poems. Gregory Pardlo began it in 2004 as an attempt to bring academic and creative writing together. He has described its running theme as taking things in, digesting them and making them his own; the collection draws on both national and personal history.
