The author, one of the foremost scholars of Dickinson's manuscripts, has prepared a one-volume edition of all extant poems by Emily Dickinson, 1789 poems in all, rendered with Dickinson's spelling, punctuation, and capitilization intact.
Emily Dickinson, poet of the interior life, imagined words/swords, hurling barbed syllables/piercing. Nothing about her adult appearance or habitation revealed such a militant soul. Only poems, written quietly in a room of her own, often hand-stitched in small volumes, then hidden in a drawer, revealed her true self. She did not live in time but in universals―an acute, sensitive nature reaching out boldly from self-referral to a wider, imagined world.
Dickinson died without fame; only a few poems were published in her lifetime. Her legacy was later rescued from her desk―an astonishing body of work, much of which has since appeared in piecemeal editions, sometimes with words altered by editors or publishers according to the fashion of the day.
Now Ralph Franklin, the foremost scholar of Dickinson's manuscripts, has prepared an authoritative one-volume edition of all extant poems by Emily Dickinson―1,789 poems in all, the largest number ever assembled. This reading edition derives from his three-volume work, The Poems of Emily Dickinson: Variorum Edition (1998), which contains approximately 2,500 sources for the poems. In this one-volume edition, Franklin offers a single reading of each poem―usually the latest version of the entire poem―rendered with Dickinson's spelling, punctuation, and capitalization intact. The Poems of Emily Dickinson: Reading Edition is a milestone in American literary scholarship and an indispensable addition to the personal library of poetry lovers everywhere.
They say that this is now the definitive text. Maybe. Lupita, the house parrot, enjoys hearing I heard a Fly Buzz When I Died sung to the tune of The Yellow Rose of Texas, definitive or not, the more off key the better. ( )
Edited by Franklin, returning poems to as-close-to-original as possible. Through research (incl. analysing Emily's handwriting over the years), he tried to assess the specific years the poems were written. ( )

Emily Dickinson wrote poems nearly all her life, most of them in the Dickinson Homestead on Main Street in Amherst, Massachusetts, where she was born in December 1830, lived in virtual seclusion as an adult, and, in May 1886, died. [Introduction]
Awake ye muses nine, sing me a strain divine, unwind the solemn twin, and tie my Valentine!

An ear can break a human heart As quickly as a spear. We wish the ear had not a heart So dangerously near.
