The selected poems of Emily Dickinson

Dickinson, Emily, 1830-18862022
Books, Manuscripts
Explore the essence of life, love, nature, and time in exquisite verse with this elegantly designed edition of Emily Dickinson's finest poems. Born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a prominent New England family and educated at Amherst Academy and Mt. Holyoke Female Seminary, Emily Elizabeth Dickinson lived most of her life in seclusion, devoted to writing. She scarcely left home, nor did she have many visitors. Only ten of her poems were published in her lifetime, submitted without her permission by friends. It was only after her death in 1886 that the scope of her work as a poet came to light-over 1,700 poems were discovered in a dresser drawer by her sister.
