SUMMARY:Emily and J.G.
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Clapp Memorial Library on Monday\, July 20 at 6pm for Emily & J.G.\, a lively conversation that will touch the heart. For much of her life\, Poet Emily Dickinson corresponded with Belchertown’s own J.G. Holland and his wife\, sharing the intimate moments of their lives through language—currents of the 19th century\, recipes\, snippets of poems\, news of children\, the nature of friendship\, love\, art\, longing and grief. \nThe conversation between Emily and Dr. Holland brings to life the ideas\, humor and wisdom of the lifelong relationship between the poet who never married\, the traditional Victorian woman raising a family (Mrs. Holland) and her husband—the renowned writer of his day\, whose newspaper\, The Springfield Daily Republican\, printed the only poems Emily published in her lifetime. \nThis program is funded in part by a grant from the Belchertown Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency.
