The Angled Road is a collection of writing by ten alumnae of Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts. They were inspired by Emily Dickinson, who attended Mount Holyoke in 1847, and in particular by her poem “Experience Is the Angled Road.” Through poetry, history, fiction, and memoir, and its cover art, The Angled Road examines ideas and insights from Dickinson’s poem. Work from group members appears regularly on the MHC Puget Sound Writers blog, maintained by Elizabeth Burr-Brandstadt.
Reading for Angled Road Poets are Greta Climer, Jules Dickinson, Emily Dietrich, and Darla Kennerud [Greta was unable to attend; Liz Burr-Brandstadt read instead.]
Greta Climer welcomes the onset of the later-in-life writing bug. She has things to say and is going to say them. You are invited to listen!
Jules Dickinson is a native Pacific Northwesterner who lived for 35 years in Silicon Valley. A graduate of Mount Holyoke College, she is retired from a career in technical support. A member of MHC Puget Sound Writers, she writes poetry, song parodies, and the occasional Godzilla haiku.
Emily Dietrich grew up in Kalamazoo and spent summers on Lake Michigan, arguably the Greatest of Lakes. She studied at Mount Holyoke College and taught in San Jose, California. Poetry is her favorite, but she has published one novel, Holding True, and is revising her second, Book of Forty. Visit her website.
