Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was an American poet. Born in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a successful family with strong community ties, she lived a mostly introverted and reclusive life.

And on the strangest Sea—
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb—of Me.

Wonderful Emily. I wrote a short biography for this American poet that I love. Fortunately, there are French translations of her poems that facilitate understanding. Thank you for reviving these great moments of poetry.
