Description
Hardback. 491pp. First edition. A revisionist assessment of the 19th-century literary figure's private life draws on previously untapped sources to reveal how Dickinson lived life on her own terms, in an account that also chronicles the feud-inciting affair between her brother Austin and a young Amherst faculty wife. Two small selections of black and white plates.
