A Terror by Jeffrey Ford

4.0

emily dickinson is the heroine of this short story, which plays off a certain poem of hers involving death. the horrific imagery of the story is so well done, so vivid and visceral, and the character of emily herself is as full of heart but just as inscrutable as you would expect her to be. the author clearly did his research into emily's life and more than anything, his story has made me want to do the same. "a terror" is available here for free.
