Turtle Point Press is pleased to introduce the Divining Poets Quotable Deck Series. These elegant, boxed sets of seventy-eight cards à la tarot decks feature short quotes meant to inspire, provoke, and guide users—to contemplate, memorize, or answer life questions. Here is the ever-astonishing Emily Dickinson.
David Trinidad was struck by the Magic 8 Ball sound in his favorite bits from Emily Dickinson’s poems—mystical answers to questions one might ask about life and death. He chose seventy-eight, the number of cards in a tarot deck, and found they worked. This is a superlative selection of indelible gems to guide, ponder, and quote.
The set includes a display stand, plus an instruction card with tips on how to use the deck. This is pocket-sized wisdom to give and to keep, here in perfect time for the holiday season.
Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) is the great visionary poet whose idiosyncratic style, intense inner life, and eternally questioning mind make her one of the most fascinating and beloved American writers and the perfect medium for this divination deck. A “passenger of infinity,” Dickinson contemplated the “little Mysteries” that “harass us – like Life – and Death” and came up with these breathtakingly ethereal answers. David Trinidad is the author of more than twenty books of poetry, collaborations, and edited volumes. Among them are Swinging on a Star, Notes on a Past Life, and Dear Prudence: New and Selected Poems. Winner of a Lambda Literary Award and finalist for the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize, he is a professor of poetry at Columbia College, Chicago.
