Emily Dickinson Face to Face Bianchi Martha Dickinson
Long out of print, a uniquely intimate portrait of Emily Dickinson written by her niece.What would it be like to have Emily Dickinson as your babysitter? We see Matty as a little girl, hiding from the other grownups in Emily's upstairs rooms, helping Emily in the kitchen, venturing with her into the cellar for the gingerbread she wasn't supposed to have. In this astonishing memoir, out of print for almost a century, Martha "Matty" Dickinson describes the childhood she spent next door to--and often in the care of--her Aunt Emily.
From an early age, Emily teaches Matty the joys of As Matty becomes a teenager, she finds a confidante in her aunt, who is fascinated by the latest youth fads, school gossip, and the recurring question of what to wear to a party ("her 'vote' was for my highest-heeled red slippers")--not to mention the music, novels, and poems she and Matty both love.
