About this listen

Part of a new collection of literary voices from Gibbs Smith, written by, and for, extraordinary women - to encourage, challenge, and inspire. One of American’s most distinctive poets, Emily Dickinson scorned the conventions of her day in her approach to writing, religion, and society. Hope Is the Thing with Feathers is a collection of her vast archive of poetry to inspire the writers, creatives, and feminists of today. Continue your journey in the Women’s Voices series with Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte and The Feminist Papers by Mary Wollstonecraft.

Such a disappointment to hear these beautiful poems read so mechanically with no sense of the flow of the poem but rather is plodding through the reading.

There is also a feeling that the reader is not familiar with some of the words resulting in som jarring pronunciations.

Sadly this one is consigned to my audible bin.

Awful reading Mars beautiful poems
