The Barnes & Noble Classics edition of "The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson offers more than a passing glimpse at why the simple words of this Amherst poet live on and excite new readers each and every year. In the back of this volume the reader will find contemporaneous criticism which attempts to understand the surge of Dickinson's popularity upon the posthumous publication of her poetry, as well as a discussion of her legacy--the reappropriation of her work into the genres of theater, dance, visual art, and of course, modern poetry.
