Emily Dickinson was a famous American poet. Dickinson lived from 1830 to 1886. She wrote about love, natura, and time. These were her favourite themes.
Emily Dickinson led an unusual life. She was recluse - she almost never left her house in Amherst, Massachussetts. When she was at home, she did not see visitors, and she only wore white.
In addition to her poetry, Dickinson wrote many letters, but other people always addressed the envelopes for her. During her life only four of her poems appeared in print - and this was without her knowledge or permission. |
