These Fevered Days: Ten Pivotal Moments in the Making of Emily Dickinson

byMartha Ackmann

These Fevered Days examines ten Pivotal Moments in the Making of Emily Dickinson, combining Martha Ackmann's clear narrative with the perspective of a biographical portrait. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the connected fields of biography & autobiography and drama. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
