Wild Nights! Wild Nights! The Dickinsons and the Todds: A screenplay. (Original work);.

摘要

Emily Dickenson's seclusion is explored in light of her family's strange entanglement with the Todds. Austin Dickenson's affair with Mabel Loomis Todd, and the effect on the lives of Susan Dickenson, Lavinia Dickenson, Martha Dickenson Bianchi, David Todd, and Millicent Todd Bingham, provide a steamy context for the posthumous publication of Emily Dickenson's poetry.; The screenplay includes original music (inspired by the dashes and an old hymn) for two poems: "Wild Nights! Wild Nights!" and "Better--than Music!" Also included are visualizations of many of Dickenson's images, including "circumference," "Eden," "the bee," and "immortality."
