Stein and Dickinson

I am excited at the opportunity to read Dickinson again. HIgh school was the last time I read her work. I have never read Stein, although in another class I did get to listen to her read one of her poems, I do not remember which one. After reading more of her work, I have to say that listening to her read adds a more rhythmic quality to her poems that I think makes it more enjoyable. In her readings she is able to communicate every nuance of her poem that she wishes the audience to hear. Without the authors recitation, the work seems almost flat.
