battlepoet reviewed Emily Dickinson's Gardening Life by Marta McDowell
Review of "Emily Dickinson's Gardening Life" on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Hmm. I think if I was more of a gardener, I'd be more thrilled with this. As it was, it was fun to skip ahead to look at pictures and poems. Maybe I'll enjoy this more over time. I dunno. I wanted to read this to get to know Dickinson's poems better. I'd recommend looking for other books if you want an intro.
On the whole, it's a very well-crafted, loving book. It just wasn't quite my thing.
