"They say that "home is where the heart is." I think it is where the house is, and the adjacent buildings."
Says she that never left her house ...
"It is also November. The noons are more laconic and the sundowns sterner, and Gibraltar lights make the village foreign. November always seemed to me the Norway of the year."

The Emily of the letters is different from the Emily of the poems. She is overwhelmingly full of love and affection and sweet thoughts in the letters (of course this is just a selection) -- a different tone from the poems. An intriguing companion but medium-weight in comparison to the poems.
I would've appreciated more annotations to some of the letters in this edition. The way the notes were presented in this edition were a bit awkward, coming as they did in the same heading and format as the recipient and date. But the little size, hard cover, and bookmark ribbon were very pleasing.
