## Description

Garth Greenwell is an author and literary educator whose work explores art, memory, intimacy, vulnerability, and the ways people make meaning through experience. His website brings together information about his books, writing, teaching, events, and news. His novel Small Rain follows a poet facing a sudden medical crisis and hospitalization, using that experience to consider love, care, poetry, music, memory, and the realities of the American healthcare system. The book received the 2025 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction and the PEN/Oakland Josephine Miles Literary Award, and was recognized by numerous publications and libraries as a notable book of 2024.

Greenwell also offers online classes for readers and writers. A featured course examines the fiction of Henry James through close reading, with attention to literary craft, style, consciousness, and the influence of earlier writers. His Substack publication, To a Green Thought, features literary and film criticism, close readings, reflections on craft, and personal essays. The site provides updates on Greenwell’s writing and public events, alongside ways to explore his work and classes.
