Woman in the White Dress

Yesterday I attended the CHAT event called "Woman in the White Dress" about American poet Emily Dickinson. I thought the presentation was very interesting. I have read a few of Dickinson's poems in past but had never learned about her personal life. I found it interesting that Dickinson attended college but decided to drop out. She never married and lived at home with her parents her entire life. She absolutely loved writing, but was forced to write less later in life due to her vision worsening. Dickinson was a very interesting peron who kept her life very mysterious. Overall, I loved the presentation!
