The Essential Dickinson (Essential Poets) by Emily Dickinson - Used Book - Hardcover - from Better World Books and Biblio.com
Note: Cover may not represent actual copy or condition available

Book summary


Joyce Carol Oates's personal favorites among Emily Dickinson's poems, including both the much-anthologized and the more obscure. In her introduction, Oates states, "Dickinson is one of very few poets whose work repays countless readings, through a lifetime."


Media reviews


"Dickinson looks out intensely from her special need not to approach too close to other people, to experience itself. She expresses an uncertainty principle of the heart, an indeterminacy principle of the human psyche. For her the soul is a domain as resistant to observation and exact measurement as an electron hidden in the atom."
