A Door Ajar: Contemporary Writers and Emily Dickinson,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Thomas Gardner argues in this original study that we are just beginning, as a culture, to understand the farreaching implications of Emily Dickinson's work. Looking at the way quite different writers have enacted and fleshedout crucial aspects of her poetry, Gardner gives us a Dickinson for our times. Beginning with the work of Lucie BrockBroido, Alice Fulton, Kathleen Fraser, and Robert Hass, Gardner moves on to analytical chapters and fully developed conversations with four writers in whose work he finds the fullest extension of Dickinson's legacy. The interviews with these fourMarilynne Robinson, Charles Wright, Susan Howe, and Jorie Grahamprovide a particularly intimate look at writers at work.In returning to Dickinson's work, Gardner observes, contemporary writers have powerfully extended what he calls her poetics of broken responsiveness in which an acknowledgment of limits leads, paradoxically, to a deep engagement with a world beyond our capacity to master or possess. In the hands of our most important poets and novelists, Dickinson's "emptying of the articulate self" has become a potent means of addressing some of our culture's fundamental erotic, religious, philosophical, and social questions. A Door Ajar makes visible the Dickinson that will matter to writers and readers over the next several decades.
