Summary
Quiet Fire : Emily Dickinson's Life and Poetry
When Emily Dickinson died at her home in Amherst, Massachusetts, in 1886, she left a locked chest with hand-sewn notebooks and papers filled with nearly 1,800 unpublished poems. Four years later, her first collection was published and became a singular success. Today Dickinson is revered as one of America's greatest and most original poets. Using primary source materials, including the poet's own letters and poems, Quiet Fire presents the life and art of Emily Dickinson to a new generation.
