At times shy, yet, sometimes bold, this often misunderstood poet has fascinated readers for generations.As he did with his novel, The Secret Life of Emily Dickinson, he entices the reader to reconsider what they know about Dickinson. Was she merely that reclusive spinster trapped in her "Pearl Jail" at the Homestead or was she a gifted writer scribbling fragments on brown wrapping paper and stray envelopes that spoke of a passionate woman who chartered her own destiny and whose words inspired works of art?The depth of Charyn's research is clear from the start. He's studied previous biographies, explored Dickinson's letters and poems, and interviewed experts to bring what he sees as the real Emily Dickinson to life for modern readers. More than a woman who was trapped by her father in the family's home, more than someone's odd aunt or sister, more than the cockeyed girl in a dark dress we know from the daguerreotype, Dickinson was a powerful woman who seduced people with her words.It will be interesting to dig out my Emily Dickinson collection after reading A Loaded Gun to see if my own perceptions of her work have changed.Ultimately, I don't think we will ever learn more about Dickinson than she wished to share with us, but Charyn's in depth look at her life has definitely brought me closer to this "unknowable genius."I received a free copy of this book from the author. This review contains my honest opinion, which I have not been compensated for in any way. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book *by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2018* I found this book on Emily Dickinson a fascinating read. I was particularly interested in the connection between Emily and Joseph Cornell. I have long been an admirer of his work as well.This prompted me to count all the poems I have written over the years and so far I have written 1280 poems. I've got a way to go to catch up to 1800 written by Emily Dickinson.I loved the play of words in this book and thought it was eloquently done. I kept picturing Emily writing her poems on envelopes, recipe cards and probably anything she could rummage for useful scrap material. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Well Worth Reading *by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2016* Jerome Charyn's study has many strengths. It is not deserving of the hype, nor the rather self-congratulating subtitle. I enjoyed many of his insights--especially into the work of other devotees of Dickinson. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/25501768-a-loaded-gun-emily-dickinson-for-the-21st-century](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/25501768-a-loaded-gun-emily-dickinson-for-the-21st-century) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
