Afternoons With Emily (Classic Books on CD Collection) [UNABRIDGED]

Against the background of Amherst, Barbados and New York City, this beautifully written novel tells the story of young Miranda Chase and her friendship with Emily Dickinson, whose eccentricity and genius form a large part of this novel. Vivid descriptions of the Civil War, deaths of loved ones, high society, grim accounts of slavery and a torrid love affair all become part of this almost classical literary experience.
