Über dieses Hörbuch

Immerse yourself in the passionate, haunting world of Emily Dickinson's "In Vain." This poem explores the agonizing depths of a love unfulfilled. The speaker wrestles with the impossibility of being with their beloved, in life or death, in heaven or hell. Dickinson's unconventional metaphors - life as a discarded cup, heaven judged by earthly standards - create a world both beautiful and unsettling. With each line, the emotional intensity builds, culminating in a heartbreaking acceptance of a love forever out of reach. "In Vain" is a testament to the enduring power of love and the bittersweet ache of longing. Let Emily Dickinson's words transport you on a journey of love, loss, and the unyielding grip of desire.
