PositiveThe New York Times Book Review...powerful, and powerfully puzzling ... I quickly came to treasure Ackmann’s ample descriptions, her deep knowledge of the poet’s milieu ... Ackmann’s These Fevered Days peoples the poet’s world more thoroughly than do previous accounts ... Ackmann’s excursions into Emily Dickinson’s mind don’t so much distort as disappoint, after I’d come to rely on her solid research and the artful verisimilitude of her re-creations ... a book I recurrently fell in and out of love with as the hours passed, all the while fully absorbed.
