Seit sein Hund Lola gestorben ist, kann den kleinen Niklas nichts mehr erfreuen. Alles ist in Traurigkeit gehüllt. Selbst wenn er mit seinen Freunden spielt, ist es nicht mehr so wie früher. Die Erde sieht dunkler aus als sonst, die Nässe ist nasser und die guten Schuhe drücken, wenn er rennt. Niklas fragt sich, ob Trauer je verschwinden kann, wenn doch alles vergeht - selbst die Schönheit der Welt... Oder ob man verlernen kann diese Schönheit zu sehen? Eines Tages lernt er einen alten Mann kennen, der immer allein auf einer Bank sitzt und in die Sonne blinzelt oder in den Schnee starrt.

Emily Dickinson was one of the most reclusive of all poets. She spent much of her life in seclusion in her father’s house in Amherst, and only a handful of her 1800 poems were published in her lifetime.

Higginson, who reported that, in spite of the voluminous correspondence which passed between himself and Dickinson, he only met her twice in person.

La Signora Benestante che scrive occasionalmente versi rispettando le forme metriche lascia il posto, definitivamente e consapevolmente, al personaggio della Poetessa Martire della società benpensante e all’aspirante suicida, in un rovesciamento parodico dei valori patriarcali.

The poems in An Interesting Detail confront our shared, layered past (both planetary and human) and its knotty relationship to the present, stretching from today to prehistory, in a voice that is knowing and yearning, sincere and sardonic, and at times defiant.
