The Emily Dickinson Reader: An English-to-English Translation of Emily Dickinson’s Complete Poems

Perfect for the poetry fan who is short on time, The Emily Dickinson Reader offers Paul Legault�� ingenious and madcap one-line renderings of each of Dickinson�� 1,789 poems. Take that familiar chestnut, #314, a la Legault: ?Hope is kind of like birds. In that I don�� have any.��Or the classic hymn, #615: ?God likes to watch.��BR>
As Dickinson herself said in #769 (basically, via our translator): ?This dead person used to be a person!��and The Emily Dickinson Reader is here to tell you what that person meant.
