Emily Dickinson: Selected Poems (Bloomsbury Poetry Classics)

Because I could not stop for Death-
He kindly stopped for me-
The carriage held but just ourselves-
And Immortality.

Bloomsbury Poetry Classics are selections from the work of some of our greatest poets. The series is aimed at the general reader rather than the specialist and carries no critical or explanatory apparatus. This can be found elsewhere. In the series the poems introduce themselves, on an uncluttered page and in a format that is both attractive and convenient. The selections have been made by the distinguished poet, critic, and biographer Ian Hamilton.
