WHITE HEAT（ISBN=） 英文原版

　　White Heat is the first book to portray the remarkable
relationship between America’s most beloved poet and the fiery
abolitionist who first brought her work to the public. 
　　As the Civil War raged, an unlikely friendship was born between
the reclusive poet Emily Dickinson and Thomas Wentworth Higginson,
a literary figure who ran guns to Kansas and commanded the first
Union regiment of black soldiers. When Dickinson sent Higginson
four of her poems he realized he had encountered a wholly original
genius; their intense correspondence continued for the next quarter
century. In White Heat Brenda Wineapple tells an extraordinary
story about poetry, politics, and love, one that sheds new light on
her subjects and on the roiling America they shared.

　　Brenda Wineapple is the author of Genet: A Biography of
Janet Flanner; Sister Brother: Gertrude and Leo Stein;
and Hawthorne: A Life, winner of the Ambassador Award of the
