Capa
University of California Press, 15 de mar. de 1992 - 602 páginas
Elizabeth Bishop dedicated her poetry to telling “what really happened.” Yet what really happened in the life on one of the twentieth century's finest and most beloved American poets has eluded readers for years. In this first full biography, Brett Millier pieces together the compelling and painful story of Bishop's life and traces the writing of her brilliantly crafted poems.
