Emily Dickinson was one of the most reclusive of all poets. She spent much of her life in seclusion in her father’s house in Amherst, and only a handful of her 1800 poems were published in her lifetime.

Higginson, who reported that, in spite of the voluminous correspondence which passed between himself and Dickinson, he only met her twice in person.

अग्रणी कवि बच्चन की कविता का आरंभ तीसरे दशक के मध्य 'मधु' अथवा मदिरा के इर्द-गिर्द हुआ और 'मधुशाला' एक-एक वर्ष के अंतर से प्रकाशित हुए। ये बहुत लोकप्रिय हुए और प्रथम 'मधुशाला' ने तो धूम ही मचा दी। यह दरअसल हिन्दी साहित्य की आत्मा का ही अंग बन गई और कालजयी रचनाओं कर श्रेणी में आ खड़ी हुई है। इन कविताओं की रचना के समय कवि की आयु 27-28 वर्ष की थी, अतः स्वाभाविक है कि ये संग्रह यौवन के रस और ज्वार से भरपूर हैं।

With an unfailing and seemingly effortless command of language, she voiced the deepest concerns of ordinary people, especially women, to an extent that no other writer of her time could do.
