Welcome to Litsy!

Confession: poetry isn‘t really my thing. However, I greatly enjoy Christina Rossetti and Emily Dickinson. Years ago, I visited Dickinson‘s home and really understood her genius. Her works are a #masterpiece in feelings - dark and stormy, with a dash of hope. There has been a lot of renewed interest in Dickinson of late, and this book chronicles how Dickinson‘s works gained the limelight after Dickinson‘s death. On my #tbr pile. #Movember

From the bookstore and in the mail today. The tagged book is the story of the two women who organized Emily Dickinson‘s poetry after her death. The Georges Simenon is the first of the Maigret series. I‘ve been enjoying it on BritBox, and thought I should read the books. Year of Wonder is a daily sampling of classical music with a bit about each piece and it‘s composer. I discovered Apple has the music to go along with it! #bookhaul
