Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson Hardcover - 1976
by Emily Dickinson
Summary
Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886) was an eccentric, reclusive poet, though born to a family of good standing within their Massachusetts community. She had fewer than a dozen poems published in her lifetime, though posthumously her sister found a cache of nearly eighteen hundred, all of which have now been published. Emily's style was broke with the common forms of poetry at the time, and foreshadowed what was to come. Her work was harshly criticized when first published, but she is now considered one of the American greats.
First line
Awake ye muses nine, sing me a strain divine, Unwind the solemn twine, and tie my Valentine!
