Unclassifiable, nonconformist, ultra-modern: even today Emily Dickinson captivates us with the power of her verse and the mystery of her life. But was she really the \u201crecluse poetess\u201d whose story some continue to tell us? Or is there much more we should know about her?\nHungry for words and happiness since childhood, an early observer of the world and nature, Emily Dickinson's youth is dense with encounters and affections: a passionate schoolgirl of botany and geology; charismatic ringleader of her classmates at Amherst Academy; avid reader of Shakespeare and the Bront\u00eb sisters, without disdaining a few successful romance novels, Emily Dickinson distinguished herself early on by the originality of her tastes and the independence of her choices. A cultured frequenter of the drawing room of the \u201cEvergreens,\u201d which she animates together with the most enlightened minds of the time, she lives surrounded by solid relationships: the intense bond with her brothers, the unbreakable fellowship with her beloved Susan Gilbert, the friendships with women and men of her time that she nurtures and cultivates even when, in her early thirties, she chooses for herself a secluded but never isolated existence.\nSara De Simone draws an erratic and passionate portrait that does justice to one of the greatest poets in the history of literature: ironic, inspired, wild, ardent, just like a volcano, quiet only in appearance, Emily Dickinson looks out at us from the pages of this book, close and impregnable. And she continues to speak to us<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
