"This selection of Emily Dickinson's poems was made by the well-known author Joyce Carol Oates. Her lengthy introduction is extremely helpful to understand and appreciate Dickinson's emotions as expressed in her poems."
"I had always thought of Emily Dickinson as a bit too precious for my tastes. But when a friend of mine recited from "It was not Death for I Stood up/ And all the Dead -- Lie down," I decided it was time I investigated the poet's more melancholy side.
All my original preconceptions of Miss Dickinson were completely idiotic and I owe her a thousand apologies.
I've never liked huge volumes of poetry, and this one is satisfyingly small and intimate. It offers a wonderful selection of her work, and I very much enjoyed the foreword by Joyce Carol Oates."
