Connie Willis Quotes
At First Glance, This Seems An Improbable Scenario Due To Both The Martians' And Emily Dickinson's Dispositions. Dickinson Was A Recluse Who Didn't Meet Anybody, Preferring To Hide Upstairs When Neighbors Came To Call And To Float Notes Down On Them.14 Various Theories Have Been Advanced For Her Self-imposed Hermitude, Including Bright's Disease, An Unhappy Love Affair, Eye Trouble, And Bad Skin. T. L. Mensa Suggests The Simpler Theory That All The Rest Of The Amherstonians Were Morons.15 None Of These Explanations Would Have Made It Likely That She Would Like Martians Any Better Than Amherstates, And There Is The Added Difficulty That, Having Died In 1886, She Would Also Have Been Badly Decomposed.
