LibriVox volunteers bring you 8 recordings of Mother Nature by Emily Dickinson. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for June 3, 2013While Emily Dickinson was a prolific private poet, fewer than a dozen of her nearly eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime. The work that was published during her lifetime was usually altered significantly by the publishers to fit the conventional poetic rules of the time. Dickinson's poems are unique for the era in which she wrote; they contain short lines, typically lack titles, and often use slant rhyme as well as unconventional capitalization and punctuation. Many of her poems deal with themes of death and immortality, two recurring topics in letters to her friends.Mother Nature is a wonderful poem by Dickinson about nature.

A man falls in love with America and leaves his wife and children for fifty years of love and adventure with Sam.
'startling... Having dealt in the past with the politics of sex, Churchill puts the sexuality of politics centre stage' - Guardian
'radiates quiet fury... Churchill's focus and target is America's broader foreign policies and Britain's supposed complicity in them... her play is a phenomenon: a very topical manifestation of mistrust, anxiety and, yes, anger' - The Times
'a smoulderingly droll and deadly allegorical conceit... wickedly witty' - Independent
'No other writer can achieve what Churchill now does, which is to convey a universe of feeling in a minimal, stripped back artistry. Though completely dissimilar to Beckett and Pinter, she is surely now in their class' - Whatsonstage.com
