Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson

Formats & Editions

Although Emily Dickinson wrote nearly 2,000 poems, only a handful were ever published in her lifetime, and those anonymously. Today, she is recognized as one of the most important American poets of the nineteenth century, one whose unconventional use of language and rhyme anticipated the break with tradition of much modern poetry written after it.

The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson collects more than 150 of Dickinsons brief but memorable poems. Bursting with insights about life, love, nature, death, and immortality, these poems are among the best loved and most reprinted in English literature.

The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson is one of Barnes & Nobles Collectible Editions classics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the worlds greatest authors in an elegantly designed bonded-leather binding, with distinctive gilt edging.
