Poems by Emily Dickinson

By: Emily Dickinson

Narrated by: Marianne Fraulo

Poems by Emily Dickinson is a compilation of the poetry of Emily Dickinson in three different series, each composed of the following subjects: Life, Love, Nature, Time, and Eternity.

The notoriously reclusive New England poet broke all the rules of Victorian-era poetry to create a new, uniquely American style. Despite the fact that the majority of the poems recited here were never published in her lifetime, Dickinson remains one of the most influential voices in American literature.

Dickinson

One of my favorite poets growing up. A Comprehensive collection with great narration. Divided helpfully into categories: Nature, Death, Love etc. .

Really Good. Needs a Better Cover Image

This is the best Dickinson audiobook I have found. I actually prefer to read her poetry, though of course it is still brilliant and strange and lyrical when read aloud. Her greatest hits are indeed great but you won't appreciate the poet's genius until you read through her complete poems. Her oddling mind masterfully exposed a leviathan of an unconscious.

excellent poems, should have had multiple narrators

“Poems by Emily Dickinson”. I had never read more than a couple of homes by Emily Dickinson before. I found them engaging and enjoyable. The audiobook should have had multiple narrators because every chapter Sounded like the last. After the 1st couple of days I ended up listening to one chapter a day which helped. I'm glad to have read the poems because she is an American treasure. I listened to this book as part of my poetry reading project. Some poems are very much 5 stars, but the weaker ones bring this total down to 4.5 stars. If you are interested in poetry then you should definitely try some Emily Dickinson. I would suggest that somebody redo an audiobook with a different narrator for each chapter. The narrator is good, but the sameness bogs it down.

Good reading of a gifted poet

I haven't spent time with Emily Dickinson for many years and bought this on a whim. The narrator is good with a pleasant voice that is appropriate for a poetry reading. One might like to keep a book of her poems handy so that you can spend some times with those poems that strike you as special.

Lovely narration

Dickinson's poetry is read with the grace and sensitivity she wrote it with, lovely listen.
