Known for her wit and preference for seclusion, 19th-century poet Emily Dickinson rarely left her home in Amherst, Massachusetts, preferring instead to write quietly from the confines of her bedroom. Today she is one of the most beloved and widely studied American poets. ""Bloom's How to Write about Emily Dickinson"" offers valuable paper-topic suggestions, clearly outlined strategies on how to write a strong essay, and an insightful introduction by Harold Bloom on writing about Dickinson. This new volume is designed to help students develop their analytical writing skills and critical comprehension of this important poet and her works.
