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. This celebratory gift edition with silk
cloth, lovely full colour illustrations, foil blocking and in a gift
slipcase is the perfect gift for every Emily Dickenson lover.
