Community Event | Hallwalls and Talking Leaves present The Letters of Emily Dickinson, Cristanne Miller Book Launch
April 29 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Please join Talking Leaves…Books & Hallwalls in launching the new book co-edited by distinguished UB English Professor Cristanne Miller, The Letters of Emily Dickinson. Cristanne Miller will do a reading and there will be a book signing session.
This new edition of Emily Dickinson’s correspondence co-edited (with Domhnall Mitchell) by the noted Dickinson scholar offers a transformative portrait of the famous American poet that takes readers beyond vague notions of Dickinson’s loneliness and isolation to reveal instead an intensely interactive and deeply involved member of a community who was very much engaged with friends, family, and the unfolding events of her time.
The Letters of Emily Dickinson, co-edited by Cristanne Miller, SUNY Distinguished Professor and Edward H. Butler Professor of English, College of Arts and Sciences, and Domhnall Mitchell, professor of 19th-century American literature at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, is the first comprehensive collection of Dickinson’s letters since Thomas H. Johnson and Theodora Ward published their edition more than 60 years ago.
