Though few of her poems were published during her lifetime, Emily Dickinson became one of America’s most prolific and well-known poets. Her poetry is esoteric and haunting, at times hard to comprehend, but always containing a message, opinion, or statement of who she was and how she saw the world. We will discuss the life experiences and the social world that created both the woman and the poet.This program is free and open to the public.
