Emily Dickinson The Gorgeous Nothings

Posted by mdever on November 22, 2013 in archive, letters, Publication

Previously published as a limited edition artist’s book, Emily Dickinson The Gorgeous Nothings is a colour facsimile edition of Emily Dickinson’s writings on envelopes. Compiled by Marta Werner and Jen Bervin (with a preface by Susan Howe), this striking volume raises all manner of questions about archival scraps, paper and materiality.

Published by Christine Burgin/New Directions in association with Granary Books (2013).
