About Emily Dickinson
Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) was an American poet known for her unique and innovative style. She lived a reclusive life in Amherst, Massachusetts, and only a handful of her nearly 1,800 poems were published during her lifetime. After her death, her sister discovered her extensive collection of poems, revealing Dickinson's profound insights into themes such as nature, love, death, and immortality. Today, Dickinson is considered one of the most important poets in American literature.
