What was Emily Dickinson like?

I’m fairly confident she wasn’t a xenophobe. A xenophobe wouldn’t make a beautiful simile comparing the voice of the south wind to an emigrants “address.”

Emily Dickinson has a reputation as a recluse but she accepted people for their differences.

So far in 1066:

• Edward the Confessor has died.
• Harold Godwineson has been named king instead of Edgar Ætheling.
• Edward has been buried.
• Harold has been crowned.

It's still only 6 January.
