The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson

 

Category: Literature


Author: Emily Dickinson

 

Copyright/published Year: 1976 by Back Bay Books

 

ISBN: 0316184136

 

Binding: Paperback


Emily Dickinson proved that brevity can be beautiful. Here is her complete oeuvre--all 1,775 poems--available in its original form, uncorrupted by editorial revision, in one volume. Thomas H. Johnson, a longtime Dickinson scholar, arranged the poems in chronological order as far as could be ascertained (the dates for more than 100 are unknown). This organization allows a wide-angle view of Dickinson's poetic development, from the sometimes-clunky rhyme schemes of her juvenilia, including valentines she wrote in the early 1850s, to the gloomy, hell-obsessed writings from her last years. Quite a difference from requisite Dickinson entries in literary anthologies: "There's a certain Slant of light," "Wild Nights--Wild Nights!" and "I taste a liquor never brewed."
