Dickinson is set during Emily Dickinson's era with a modern sensibility and tone. It takes viewers into the world of Emily, audaciously exploring the constraints of society, gender, and family from the perspective of a budding writer who doesn't fit in to her own time through her imaginative point of view. Dickinson is Emily's coming-of-age story – one woman's fight to get her voice heard.

While this adaptation is barely ‘historically accurate’ I find the plot much more in a metaphorical morbid tale. The writers seemed to adapt season 2 according to the writings, notes, and ‘rewritten letters’ in the written historical account of Em’s brother’s mistress, Mabel. In actual historical documentation, Mabel, is the mistress who paints Em and Sue’s relationship as tumultuously cold, rigid, and in a battle to do ethically and societal correctness. But their true relationship, Em’s and Sue’s, was nothing but warm, kind, and loving.

The Reapers presence is a hoot. The viewer needs to quickly differentiate between Emily’s reality vs her internal self doubting minds discussions (the reaper). Hence why she did go a bit ‘mad’ in reality and was a recluse because of her self doubt and lack of self worth. It is from Emily’s good vs evil introspection we see where her rebellious, opinionated, expressiveness comes from that is written within her poetic works of art.

I’m looking forward to season 3.

I really just don’t know what they were thinking with season 2. They just spent a season crapping on Sue and then had like 10 seconds of resolution. The whole of the first season she was kind and thoughtful, then s2 hits and they’re like “screw it, MURDER HER PERSONALITY FOR DRAMA”. It was a really unenjoyable season, pretty historically inaccurate from what i can tell, and has basically left me not liking a single character on the show. RIP good show.
