A whimsical and misanthropic imagining of Emily Dickinson's life
Emily Dickinson is as famous for being a recluse as she is for her poetry. In this stunning novel, Fortier brings Dickinson vividly to life, as if reanimating a flower that had been pressed in a book, through her reflections on language and what it feels like to be home.
'Its language is luminous, precise; its structure, ambitious.' -
