Read in February, 2009
Beautiful words, but I felt dirty and invading having access to them--all I could picture was how embarrassed she'd be.

Benjamin rated it: 5 of 5 stars (review of isbn 1558491554)

A beautiful edition of the curious manuscripts known as the "Master letters," which may be drafts of actual letters (as most people think), but might be experiments in prose (as the great poet and scholar Susan Howe suggests in My Emily Dickinson. This edition presents the text in holograph and print, but includes facsimiles folded in an envelope.

Another way to gain insight into the amazing and mysterious Emily. Read this as part of a class on Dickinson, otherwise probably wouldn't have known about it. If you are an Emily fan, read this.
