A compelling work of literary biography and criticism, Portrait of Emily Dickinson: The Poet and Her Prose presents a richly detailed examination of one of America's most enigmatic and celebrated poets. David Higgins draws on Dickinson's extensive correspondence and personal writings to illuminate the inner life of a woman who crafted a body of poetry that would redefine American verse. The study argues that her prose — letters and fragments long overshadowed by her poems — is essential to understanding the full scope of her artistic vision and personal character. Higgins chronicles the development of Dickinson's creative identity with scholarly precision, weaving biographical detail into close textual analysis to produce a portrait both intimate and authoritative. Published by Rutgers University Press, this work remains an important contribution to Dickinson scholarship and American literary studies.
