About this ebook
What inspired Emily Dickinson to write so many poems and become one of the greatest American poets of all time? After her death, Dickinson gained popularity. She tried to make a change in the world through her writings, innermost feelings and inspirations. Despite all the critics, Emily Dickinson did not seek any recognition but the poetry was aimed at her individuality and perception of the world not many people share. This cultivated her true genius, continuing to surprise readers young and old.
Emily Dickinson's poetry reflects the power of her contemplative gifts, and her deep sensitivity courses through her correspondence as well. She was a principled woman who was not really a female activist but chose to live a quiet and peaceful celibate life. Emily's outstanding contribution in the literary world has remained an indelible streak in the memories of many people throughout the globe to date.
