Not Your Grandmother's Emily Dickinson

April is National Poetry Month.  Join us for a presentation about Emily Dickinson as you never imagined her.  Local resident, actor and retired teacher Harold Bond will offer some surprisingly scandalous stories about the poet and her family.  He will also read a selection of Emily Dickinson's poems and discuss their themes and hidden meanings.  Select your favorite Dickinson poems in advance of the program by visiting the library, or the website (www.readingpl.org).  The top vote-getters will be read at the event.
