До книжки ввійшли ліричні вірші класика американської літератури XIX ст.— поетеси, що своїми напруженими шуканнями, своєрідністю творчої манери, глибиною філософських прозрінь та поетичних осяянь набагато випередила свій час і стала предтечею нової мистецької доби з її дисгармонією та тривожними пошуками «суті світу». Поетичний світ Емілі Дікінсон відзначається трагічністю контрастів і гострими суперечностями. Її поезія - це відчайдушна спроба розгадати таємницю людського та космічного буття, вперте намагання вийти за межі узвичаєного кола знань та уявлень.
В Україні твори Е. Дікінсон окремою книжкою виходять уперше.

About the author
Emily Dickinson
1,553 books6,831 followersEmily Dickinson was an American poet who, despite the fact that less than a dozen of her nearly eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime, is widely considered one of the most original and influential poets of the 19th century.
Dickinson was born to a successful family with strong community ties, she lived a mostly introverted and reclusive life. After she studied at the Amherst Academy for seven years in her youth, she spent a short time at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary before returning to her family's house in Amherst. Thought of as an eccentric by the locals, she became known for her penchant for white clothing and her reluctance to greet guests or, later in life, even leave her room. Most of her friendships were therefore carried out by correspondence.
Although Dickinson was a prolific private poet, fewer than a dozen of her nearly eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime.The work that was published during her lifetime was usually altered significantly by the publishers to fit the conventional poetic rules of the time. Dickinson's poems are unique for the era in which she wrote; they contain short lines, typically lack titles, and often use slant rhyme as well as unconventional capitalization and punctuation.Many of her poems deal with themes of death and immortality, two recurring topics in letters to her friends.
Although most of her acquaintances were probably aware of Dickinson's writing, it was not until after her death in 1886—when Lavinia, Emily's younger sister, discovered her cache of poems—that the breadth of Dickinson's work became apparent. Her first collection of poetry was published in 1890 by personal acquaintances Thomas Wentworth Higginson and Mabel Loomis Todd, both of whom heavily edited the content.
A complete and mostly unaltered collection of her poetry became available for the first time in 1955 when The Poems of Emily Dickinson was published by scholar Thomas H. Johnson. Despite unfavorable reviews and skepticism of her literary prowess during the late 19th and early 20th century, critics now consider Dickinson to be a major American poet.

December 20, 2023прекрасні переклади, що зайвий раз нагадують, як важко поезія надається перекладу(
особливо така складна і химерна, як її. а коли не бурчати — гарна вибірка, надзвичайна гра зі старими ритмами, блискуча передмова соломії павличко.

Не вмію читати поезію, але гріх було пройти повз таке цікаве видання. Самозаглиблення, вимріювання, спроби пізнання світу — от як би я підсумував для себе представлену у збірці творчість Дікінсон. З десяток віршів відмітив закладками, аби пізніше познайомитися з ними в оригіналі.
