Collected Poems (AmazonClassics Edition)

By: Emily Dickinson

Narrated by: Karen Peakes

Through her transcendent imagery, distinct punctuation, experimental slant rhyme, and wordplay, Emily Dickinson set herself apart from every other poet of her time. These essential works - thematically divided into poems on life, nature, love, and time and eternity - reveal a keen, humorous observer whose art, like the artist herself, defied tradition.

Originally published in three volumes between 1890 and 1891, this collection established Dickinson as a literary icon years after her death. Also included in this edition is The Single Hound, a once-lost volume of poetry edited by her niece, who was instrumental in establishing her aunt as the most widely read poet in the English language.

Revised edition: Previously published as The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson, this edition of Collected Poems (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Pretty good

A literary classic and not bad did really expanded my poetry enjoyment I can see why this is a classic staple

It is a nice presentation

It is a nice presentation of some great poetry. It is a bit on the morbid side. I know I will be listening to it again in the future.
