Emily Dickinson is one of my favorite poets, but she was as crazy as Howard Hughes, Vincent Van Gogh, or Edgar Allen Poe.
Why was she so crazy. All i really know about her is that she is an american poet.
She dressed all in white, refused to leave her bedroom, and only sold 18 poems while she was alive, out of 1800 that she wrote.  This is the textbook definition of a hermit or recluse.
What made her so crazy though? Was it where she was raised, in Amherst, Massachusetts?
