Review # 1 was written on 2019-05-10 00:00:00 Eve Collins Written in turgid academic style, but full of really interesting and compelling ideas... For me it was worth the slog, but the same may not be true for you... (also, for a 1992 book to overlook the possibility that the beloved might actually be female in the case of ED feels a little strange...) That being said, here's a pretty great description Cameron makes of the experience of reading Emily Dickinson: "What is repeatedly insisted upon is radical connection -- as poems are not divided, as the dead and the living are not divided, as the "I" and the "you" are not divided, as speech from the center and speech from the margin are not divided, as the presumptive speech of the speaker and the presumptive speech of the reader are -- can be said -- not to be divided. To read Dickinson's poetry is to be thrust into territory where words issue from her consciousness as if it were our own." (p.188-9)
