The gorgeous nothings: emily dickinson's envelope poems, hardcover/emily dickinson

The Gorgeous Nothings -- the first full-color facsimile edition of Emily Dickinsons manuscripts ever to appear -- is a deluxe edition of her late writings, presenting this crucially important, experimental late work exactly as she wrote it on scraps of envelopes.

Envisioned by the artist Jen Bervin and made possible by the extensive research of the Dickinson scholar Marta L.

Werner, this book offers a new understanding and appreciation of the genius of Emily Dickinson.
