The Voice at the Door recreates the fateful meeting of Emily Dickinson with the famous Philadelphia pastor, Charles Wadsworth. The fictional account weaves the letters and poems of this iconic American writer into a rich tapestry of intellectual and spiritual communion. It encompasses the three great mysteries of Emily Dickinson’s life: her agonized love poetry of the early 1860’s, her partial blindness in 1863–1865, and her subsequent withdrawal from the world. The Voice at the Door brings to life an Emily Dickinson who possesses the intellectual rigor, the naïveté, the eccentricity, the passion, the despair, and the sly humor that we know and love from her poetry.
