Details
Ted Malone sits at a table with an NBC microphone and a book lying open on it broadcasting in the living room of the Emily Dickinson's home. An unidentified white man stands at the fireplace and places his right hand on a wooden bassinet cradle in front of the fireplace. The epitaph of William Shakespeare sits on the mantle behind glassware. It states, "Good friend for Jesus sake forbeare, To digg the dust encloased heare. Blese be [the] man [that] spares thes stones, And curst be he [that] moves my bones." A table with the sides folded down sits to the left of the fireplace with a china tea set and a candlestick sitting on top of it. A staircase is visible behind Tom Malone. There is a door on both sides of the fireplace.
