Teaser Tuesday #11

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Mizb at Should Be Reading.  To participate, you need to:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two teaser sentences from somewhere on that page
• Be careful not to include spoilers
• Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR list if they like your teaser

This week's teaser comes from:



The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson by Jerome Charyn



I dare not ask Zilpah about Miss Rebecca's love poem, though my mind is like a massive flint-stone of sparks & syllables on fire.  And while I imagine Rebecca's words, Zilpah starts to read - she's memorized the poem.

I'm loving the language flow in these two sentences.  I am eager to finish this book and post a review of it.  I'm also hosting a blog tour stop for this book this Saturday, February 19th.
