Title: These Fevered Days: Ten Pivotal Moments in the Making of Emily Dickinson

Author: Martha Ackmann

Narrator: Martha Ackmann

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:22:25

Language: English

Release date: 03-10-20

Publisher: Recorded Books

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Literary

Summary:

On August 3, 1845, young Emily Dickinson declared, All things are ready and with this resolute statement,

her life as a poet began. Despite spending her days almost entirely at home (the occupation listed on her death

certificate), Dickinsons interior world was extraordinary. She loved passionately, was hesitant about publication,

embraced seclusion, and created 1,789 poems that she tucked into a dresser drawer.

In These Fevered Days, Martha Ackmann unravels the mysteries of Dickinsons life through ten decisive episodes

that distill her evolution as a poet. Ackmann follows Dickinson through her religious crisis while a student at Mount

Holyoke, which prefigured her lifelong ambivalence toward organized religion and her deep, private spirituality. We

see the poet through her exhilarating frenzy of composition, through which we come to understand her fiercely selfcritical eye and her relationship with her sister-in-law and first reader, Susan Dickinson. Contrary to her reputation

as a recluse, Dickinson makes the startling decision to ask a famous editor for advice, writes anguished letters to an

unidentified Master, and keeps up a lifelong friendship with writer Helen Hunt Jackson. At the peak of her literary

productivity, she is seized with despair in confronting possible blindness.

Utilizing thousands of archival letters and poems as well as never-before-seen photos, These Fevered Days constructs

a remarkable map of Emily Dickinsons inner life. Together, these ten days provide new insights into her wildly original

poetry and render a concise and vivid portrait of American literatures most enigmatic figure

crack. His downfall was as swift as his privilege was vast or had he been falling all along?

Raised in a Georgetown mansion and educated at exclusive institutions, Carder ran with a crowd of movers,

face of serious addiction. Lost years and a stint in rehab later, when Carder was a dirty, broke, soon-to-be-homeless

pimps. But even his loyalty and protection cant save Carder from the peril of the streetsor the eventual contract on

his life.

From a youth of affluence to the hit the Shoreline Crips put on his life, Carder delves deep into life on the streets.

Lost in Ghost Town is a riveting, raw, and heartfelt look at the power of addiction, the beauty of redemption, and

finding truth somewhere in between.

Summary:

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER NATIONAL BESTSELLER

A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought aboutuntil his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present.

A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barness oeuvre.

Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own.

But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
