    While all of Foster's work is provocative, this proves the warmest, loveliest, and most beautifully articulated recording in her catalog.
  2. Mojo

    Foster's extraordinary voice is suited to Dickinson's poignant rhymes, and tracks like They Called Me To the Window and I see Thee Better -- In The Dark, are concentrated, exquisite and oddly moving. [Feb 2010, p. 101]

    There isn't much of a sense of flow to the album; the songs stand on their own as the poems were meant to stand on their own.
