Seller's Description:
Berkeley. 1993. University of California Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. 0520079787. 603 pages. hardcover. Cover photo by Rollie McKenna. Jacket design by Steve Renick. keywords: Poetry Biography Literary Criticism America Literature. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Elizabeth Bishop dedicated her poetry to telling ‘what really happened. ' Yet what really happened in the life of one of the twentieth century's finest and most beloved American poets has eluded readers for years. Often characterized as reticent in both her person and her work, Bishop fought hard to conceal the details of her frequently harrowing life. In the first full biography of the poet, Brett Millier pieces together the compelling and painful story of Bishop's life and traces the writing of her brilliantly crafted poems. During her extensive research, Millier consulted all available archival materials as well as additional letters and documents and interviewed many of Bishop's friends, students, and colleagues. She sheds important biographical light on each major poem, weaving the poetry and the life together with such intelligence and tact that both are doubly enriched. By the time Bishop died in 1979, she had won every major literary award, including the Pulitzer Prize. She had maintained close friendships with poets such as her mentor Marianne Moore, Robert Lowell, and James Merrill, but to many she remained a mysterious figure. These pages vividly re-create her complex and tragic life. Traumatic childhood losses, chronic asthma, alcoholism, ambivalence about her passion for women tortured love affairs-these circumstances fed her perennial loneliness and pervaded her poetry. An intrepid traveler forever in search of a home, she came closest to finding one in Brazil, where she spent almost twenty of her most fruitful years. The geography (Nova Scotia, New York, Paris, Key West, Brazil) and history surrounding Bishop's life form a fascinating setting for a story of suffering and resistance-even of triumph-that is deeply appealing. What emerges most clearly in Millier's graceful telling of this story is the warm personal voice of Elizabeth Bishop striving to tell what really happened even as she recoiled from the bald confessional mode of her contemporaries. inventory #7298.
