The Poetry of Emily Dickinson-Arcturus Paperback Edition

The poetry of Emily Dickinson is brought together in this luxurious silkbound gift edition, presented in a decorative slipcase. Although a greatly talented writer, Emily Dickinson lived most of her life in private seclusion, in contrast to the culture of the time which emphasized community and socializing. Throughout her life, Emily's family ensured her care and comfort; she lived a life characterized by quiet self-seclusion. Emily's early life ensured a great standard of education, with her aunts in particular noting her inclination toward musical and literary interests. Emily Dickenson's poetry is regarded as among the greatest examples of American writing.
