Emily Dickinson Lot of 5 Poetry & Short Stories Audiobooks in 5 MP3 Audio CDsEmily Dickinson (1830 -1886) Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was an American poet. Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts. Although part of a prominent family with strong ties to its community, Dickinson lived much of her life in reclusive isolation. After studying at the Amherst Academy for seven years in her youth, she briefly attended the Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before returning to her family's house in Amherst. Considered an eccentric by locals, she developed a noted penchant for white clothing and became known for her reluctance to greet guests or, later in life, to even leave her bedroom. Dickinson never married, and most friendships between her and others depended entirely upon correspondence. Dickinson was a recluse for the later years of her life. Emily Dickinson on Death Read by Libby Gohn Running Time:0:28:02 in 1 MP3 Audio CD Emily Dickinson is one of the most intriguing of American poets. Since she grew increasingly reclusive, very few of her poems were published until after her death. This collection includes two letters Dickinson wrote to her friends on the occasion of the deaths of her friend, Mr. Humphrey, and her brother, Austin. The rest of collection consists of her poetry on the subject of death. 01 - Amherst, January 2, 1851, to Mrs. Strong 02 - Autumn, 1876, to Dr. and Mrs. Holland 03 - 'Let down the bars, O Death!' 04 - 'Going to Heaven!' 05 - 'Morns like these we parted' 06 - 'I read my sentence steadily' 07 - 'The only ghost I ever saw' 08 - Memorials 09 - The Journey 10 - Going 11 - 'If I should die' 12 - Ghosts 13 - 'What inn is this' 14 - Till The End 15 - The Chariot 16 - 'Death is a dialogue' 17 - At Length 18 - Numen Lumen 19 - 'I meant to find her when I came' 20 - 'If I may have it when it's dead' 21 - 'There's been a death in the opposite house' 22 - 'After great pain, a formal feeling comes' Poems: Series One Read by Shurtagal Running Time:1:08:16 in 1 MP3 Audio CD This collection, "Poems: Series One", presents the first installment of the complete poetic works of Miss Emily Dickinson. It is broken into four parts: Life, Love, Nature, and Time and Eternity. The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called "the Poetry of the Portfolio,"--something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. The poetry found here is then entirely honest, and indicative of the authors true feelings. Poems: Series Two Read by Laura Atkinson Running Time:1:39:59 in 1 MP3 Audio CD "The eagerness with which the first volume of Emily Dickinson's poems has been read shows very clearly that all our alleged modern artificiality does not prevent a prompt appreciation of the qualities of directness and simplicity in approaching the greatest themes,—life and love and death. That "irresistible needle-touch," as one of her best critics has called it, piercing at once the very core of a thought, has found a response as wide and sympathetic as it has been unexpected even to those who knew best her compelling power. This second volume, while open to the same criticism as to form with its predecessor, shows also the same shining beauties." (Summary by Mabel Loomis Todd, from Preface) The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson Read by Becky Miller Running Time:0:21:00 in 1 MP3 Audio CD Emily Dickinson has come to be regarded as one of the quintessential poets of 19th century America. A very private poet with a very quiet and reclusive life, her poetry was published posthumously and immediately found a wide audience. While she echoed the romantic natural themes of her times, her style was much more free and irregular, causing many to criticize her and editors to "correct" her. In the early 20th century, when poetic style had become much looser, new audiences learned to appreciate her work. Here collected are many of her most contemplative, most rebellious, and "dark" works, expressing her frustrations with the behavioral confines of her times, and the confines of being human and unknowing of eternity. 01 Soul selects her own society, The 02 After great pain, a formal feeling comes 03 Hope is the thing with feathers 04 I never hear the word “escape" 05 There is no frigate like a book 06 Because I could not stop for Death 07 Of all the sounds dispatched abroad 08 Success is counted sweetest 09 If I can stop one heart from breaking 10 To fight aloud is very brave 11 Pain has an element of blank 12 I can wade grief 13 For each ecstatic instant 14 I meant to have but modest needs 15 Thought went up my mind to-day, A 16 Is Heaven a physician? 17 Poor torn heart, a tattered heart, A 18 I should have been too glad 19 Each life converges to some centre 20 My life closed twice before its close 22 If recollecting were forgetting 23 Brain is wider than the sky, The 24 Softened by Time’s consummate plush 25 I had no time to hate Because I Could Not Stop for Death and Other Poems Read by Multiple Readers Running Time :01:32:39 in 1 MP3 Audio CD A Deed A Service of Song A Thunder-Storm A Word Is Dead After great pain, a formal feeling comes As imperceptibly as Grief Awake Ye Muses Nine Because I Could Not Stop for Death Before I Got My Eye Put Out By The Sea Consecration Death Disenchantment Dying Escape Faith is a Fine Invention Farewell Griefs Hope Is the Thing with Feathers How happy is the little Stone I Died for Beauty I Felt a Funeral in My Brain I have no Life but this I heard a fly buzz -- when I died I Like to See It Lap the Miles I Many Times Thought Peace Had Come I Never Hear the Word Escape I Never Saw a Moor I Started Early I Stepped from Plank to Plank I Taste a Liquor Never Brewed I'm Wife If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking If I Should Die In A Library In Vain Indian Summer It Is an Honorable Thought It was not death, for I stood up I’ll tell you how the sun rose I’m Nobody I’m Nobody!
