Lives Like Loaded Guns – Emily Dickinson and Her Family's Feuds

Gordon, Lyndall

Dramas at Emily's, the toxic feud over wills, copyright, and rival editions that followed the poet's death, a provocative thesis about her mystery illness, dispelling the myth of the shrinking violet; the title is from a line of the poet's, 'My Life had stood – a Loaded Gun'; illustrated.
