Collection
Description
Celebrated for her eloquent, concise, and deceptively simple verse, Emily Dickinson introduced an exciting new world of innovation in rhyme, meter, and metaphor. Over 100 of Dickinson's best-known, best-loved poems appear here, including ""Because I could not stop for Death,"" ""Hope is the thing with feathers,"" ""I heard a fly buzz when I died,"" ""I'm nobody! Who are you?"" and ""My life closed twice before its close.""This Dover edition is specially designed for those who need or prefer large print and meets the standards of the National Association for the Visually Handicapped.

My second collection of Dickinson poetry, replacing one I got in grade school that has long since fallen apart—this collection has all of my favorites.

Rather interestingly-shaped anthology, despite all we know about the Dickinson fascicules; worth some consideration in its own right. Higginson in particular ought not to be underestimated as a figure.

I don't 'get' a lot of poetry, but I've always been intrigued by Dickinson and her life. So I finally read some of her work. I did understand snippets of ideas, though I was often confused. But still, enjoyable.
