Reviews

'With imagination and precision, this first-rate collection of essays explores the varied contexts - geographical, familial, historical, artistic, intellectual, social, cultural and political - that influenced Elizabeth Bishop's literary career. Read in such diverse contexts, Bishop's work emerges as more complex, multi-faceted, and surprising than even long-term readers might expect. This book is a must-read for readers new to Bishop and for those that thought they knew her.' Susan Rosenbaum, University of Georgia
