Hailee Steinfeld in the second season of ‘Dickinson’
The Apple TV+ series is an insightful, yet hilarious take on the coming-of-age story of the American poet, as she navigates through issues of recognition and fame
The characters in season two of
Dickinson explore fame, self-worth and purpose, while the writers figure out the balance between biography and fiction. The first season introduced us to Emily Dickinson (Hailee Steinfeld), the off-beat, non-adherent young poet, her family and life in Amherst, Massachusetts. The show gained popularity for its modern sensibility and wicked humour with contemporary music playing in the background, as the characters use everyday lingo to communicate with each other.
