The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson by Emily Dickinson

5.0

---

I have no idea how I'm supposed to write a review on a poetry collection, even more so when it is the complete poems of an author. I'll try to take the time and develop it into an article on my blog. All I'll say, for now, is that as a French reader, this was very challenging. I did not have the vocabulary for Dickinson's passion and fascination for Nature, I'm not enough aware of the Biblical references to get some of her poems and I'm very open to books talking about her poetry, as the ones my teachers recommended us, focus mostly on "My Life Has Stood A Loaded Gun" and well, there 1775 poems in the books, so help me understand them all!! Also, Rory (my cat) loved listening to me reading them at loud and she usually does not care so...
