Johnson, has presented the poems in their original texts; and where alternate readings were suggested, he has chosen only those which the poet evidently preferred.

Emily Dickinson (1830-86) was born in Amherst, Massachussetts, where she lived most of her life as a recluse, seldom leaving the house or receiving visitors. She published just a handful of poems in her lifetime, her first collection appearing posthumously in 1890.

Johnson. ***Very good in the 1980s style Faber-monogrammed blue textured card covers. The covers have some marks and creasing commensurate with age and handling (please see scans).

No reading lean to the binding though, and no tears. The back cover is slightly marked. Spine colour is unfaded. Page block edges nice and clean. Internally also very good, with no previous ownership inscriptions, but please note that a previous owner has made a note of their favourite poems and these are listed on the inside front cover, but in pencil, so could be erased if so wished. Emily Dickinson's birth and death dates also in pencil on the half-title page (please see scans). Internally the pages are clean, with no tears or annotations, but please note that the top corner tip of the first few pages is creased. ***198mm x 128mm. 770 pages. ***Contents: Introduction, Poems, Acknowledgments, Previous Collections, Subject Index, Index of First Lines. ***'"The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson" is the only one-volume edition containing all Emily Dickinson's poems.
