 April 11, as part of National Poetry Month, the University at Buffalo Department of English is sponsoring a marathon community reading of all 1789 of Emily Dickinson’s poems beginning with the early valentine “Awake ye muses nine” and ending with an undated reflection on the “magical frontier” between beauty and death, or pleasure and sorrow, which begins “The saddest noise, the sweetest noise” and ends with the stanza:

An ear can break a human heart
As quickly as a spear.
We wish the ear had not a heart
So dangerously  near.




Come join us in reading all 1789 of Dickinson's poems 1:00-1:30, Unitarian Universalist Choir will perform Leo Smit settings of selected poems!
