The extraordinary writings of Phillis Wheatley, a slave girl turned published poet In 1761, a young girl arrived in Boston on a slave ship, sold to the Wheatley family, and given the name Phillis Wheatley. Struck by Phillis' extraordinary precociousness, the Wheatleys provided her with an education that was unusual for a woman of the time and astonishing for a slave. After studying English and classical literature, geography, the Bible, and Latin, Phillis published her first poem in 1767 at the age of 14, winning much public attention and considerable fame. When Boston publishers who doubted its authenticity rejected an initial collection of her poetry, Wheatley sailed to London in 1773 and found a publisher there for Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral. This volume collects both Wheatley's letters and her poetry: hymns, elegies, translations, philosophical poems, tales, and epyllions--including a poignant plea to the Earl of Dartmouth urging freedom for America and comparing the country's condition to her own. With her contemplative elegies and her use of the poetic imagination to escape an unsatisfactory world, Wheatley anticipated the Romantic Movement of the following century. The appendices to this edition include poems of Wheatley's contemporary African-American poets: Lucy Terry, Jupiter Harmon, and Francis Williams.

Best pillow ever.
Size: King
How much did I like this pillow? My wife and I both loved it so much that we purchased another one. I think that says it all! The pillow arrives in a large box (king size pillow). It does NOT arrive all flattened and squished in a vacuum bag like some others do. I did place it on my back porch to air out for a while, just because that's what I do with any new bedding. I did not have any issue with scent or odors from either of my pillows. Its clearly well constructed with high quality materials. It comes with a smaller bag of extra stuffing if you want a slightly firmer pillow. We have not used any of the extra stuffing... we think the pillows are perfect as is! When I ordered the first pillow, I thought the price was a bit on the high side. After using it, I had no hesitation purchasing a second. This pillow is well worth the price. If anything, I feel this pillow is a great value at its price. Its not too hard, not too soft. Its the goldilocks pillow! I give this pillow my highest possible recommendation. Its simply a great pillow.

Soft pillow
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
This latex pillow has been a great addition to my sleep routine. It offers the perfect balance of softness and support, especially side sleeping. I noticed less pressure on my neck and shoulders after using it. I also like that it’s made with natural latex and free from harsh memory foam chemicals. The removable cover is convenient, and the packaging makes it feel like a premium product.

Perfect Balance of Comfort & Support!
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
I absolutely love this pillow! The Talalay latex feels incredibly supportive while still being soft and comfortable. Unlike memory foam, it doesn't trap heat or give off any chemical smell-just clean, natural comfort.
I've noticed a huge difference in my sleep quality; it relieves pressure from my neck and shoulders, and I wake up without stiffness.
The Tencel cover is smooth, breathable, and removable for easy washing, which makes it feel extra fresh. The packaging was beautiful, making it feel like a premium gift right out of the box.
If you're looking for a high-quality natural pillow that's supportive, durable, and chemical-free, this is it. Highly recommend!

Hard to judge thickness with only dimensions to go by
Color: Soft, Size: Standard(24"×16"×5.5")
Very nice quality, just what I hoped for. But it's just too thick for me. I'm thinking of using my electric knife to try to skim enough off to be usable. I've slept most of my life on latex pillows and have not enjoyed using other pillows.
