My Letter to the World
My Letter to the World and Other Poems (Visions in Poetry)
My Letter to the World
Emily Dickinson, Isabelle Arsenault
Visions in Poetry is an innovative and award-winning series of classic poems reinterpreted for today's readers by outstanding contemporary artists in distinctively beautiful editions. This is My Letter to the World and Other Poems by Emily Dickinson is brilliantly illustrated by Isabelle Arsenault. The artist's interpretation displays a rich understanding of Dickinson's poetry, which is known for its economy, unexpected imagery and hauntingly personal point of view. Arsenault has created a subtle meditation on Dickinson's life and its intersection with her verse. In the dream-like illustrations, the poet -- sometimes serene, often sad and always enigmatic -- is an omnipresent figure in her ghostly white dress. Dickinson's "letters," the words she left to the world, have found their ideal visual complement.

My Letter to the World review by CHarv
Profile Picture
CHarv
My Letters To The World is a collection of seven of Emily 
Dickinson's short poems. The themes range from death to 
hope. The tone is quite serene and a bit morbid at times. 
Overall, the collection is well written and gives the 
reader a glimpse of how magnificent poetry once was and has 
the potential to be.
