In Two Emilys, Dickinson and Brontë meet in the memory and imagination of a master poet. Potos evokes these writers-contemporaries living across the Atlantic from one another-as muses and mentors, following in Brontë's steps across the moors, their wuthering skies, the gorse / grazing my ankles as I go. And we are there with her, blown about by the wind that is wider up there, where the moor air / erases your every last edge. At the Emily Dickinson Museum, Potos wonders how would it be to live / in the aftermath of her? Would she guide / my hand across the modern page? One is tempted to say yes. Potos daringly takes up the challenge of situating herself among the greatest writers of their age and succeeds brilliantly.
