Do poets die young?According to William Butler Yeats, "She is the Gaelic muse, for she gives inspiration to those she persecutes. The Gaelic poets die young, for she is restless, and will not let them remain long on earth." One study designed to investigate this issue examined the age at death for writers. The three categories of writers examined were novelists, poets, and nonfiction writers. The ages at death for female writers in these categories from North America were recorded. The data are linked below.
