At her family home, she tended both a small glass conservatory and a flower garden.In Emily Dickinsons Gardening Life, award-winning author Marta McDowell explores Dickinsons deep passion for plants and how it inspired and informed her writing. Tracing a year in the garden, the book reveals details few know about Dickinson and adds to our collective understanding of who she was as a person. By weaving together Dickinsons poems, excerpts from letters, contemporary and historical photography, and botanical art, McDowell offers an enchanting new perspective on one of Americas most celebrated but enigmatic literary figures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52228185522464,"sku":"NEW1604698225","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91-zXuQvCwL.jpg?v=1787355879","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/emily-dickinsons-gardening-life-the-plants-and-places-that-inspired-the-iconic-poet-1604698225","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
