A murmur in the trees - Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson is one of the world's best known and most widely read poets, though at the time of her death in 1886, only seven of her more than 1000 poems had been published. But shortly thereafter, the genius of her work was recognized and it has since received wide and consistent acclaim.

Her verse - noted for its style, wit and bold and startling imagery - has greatly influenced the direction of twentieth century poetry.The 112 poems in this collection are taken from the definitive Johnson edition of her work and are accompanied by 65 delicate pencil drawings, created especially for this book by Ferris Cook.

More than a century after her death, Emily Dickinson is an American Classic and one of the most influential poets of her era.
