Poetry is Autistic (Episode 03)
Episode description
18th Century Poet Emily Dickinson was a gender-bending rebel who found creative ways to embrace her social differences. Her obsession with reading and writing poetry was compulsive and while only 10 of her poems were published, her full body of work make a huge literary impact. She left a legacy of authenticity and healthy boundaries and modelled unique ways of breaking the social rules of the society she lived it. Her credo was “Tell all the Truth but tell it slant.”
