Octavio Paz, Eliot Weinberger

New Directions Publishing Corporation, 1991

Sing the Voice Fantastico
Octavio Paz has since passed through this world leaving behind a beautiful web of words with the tapestry of things seen and unseen. Paz does an ambidextrous job of mixing in elements of surrealism with the bone of natural objects and that which is very real. His, and the translator Eliot Weinberger ... along with the help of other poet translators to include Bishop, Levertov, Tomlinson--all of ...

Exchanging Hats: Paintings

Elizabeth Bishop

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1996

A Poet's Paintings
Elizabeth Bishop was an elusive and multi-faceted woman. Gaining a glimpse of her through her poetry, some details through her prose, she has remained enigmatic, despite the many volumes of criticism and biography dedicated to her life and art. Her paintings show us another side of her creativity, and in "Exchanging Hats" we are provided with a greater depth of understanding of her creative ...

A Gallery of Amish Quilts
The fascination with American quilts continues. Of special interest to many collectors today are the boldly colored, handsomeely quilted bedcovers made by the Amish women in Pennsylvania - particularyly Lancaster County - and in the Amish communities of Ohio and Indiana. These old Amish quilts have a dual appeal - their visual impact and their superior craftsmanship. Some students of modern ...

Merwin, Mark Strand and Bishop. The selections are neither too much nor too ...

I Fell In Love With Elizabeth Bishop All Over Again!
In this amazing collection of Elizabeth Bishop's selected letters, all of the various nuances of her most personal voice --warm, intimate, keenly observant, whimsical and humorous, generous, shy, gutwrenchingly honest, decorous and demure -- come through with astonishing human clarity. Bishop's engaging and elegant epistolary style makes reading One Art almost like reading an epistolary novel. ...

Love of Poetry
This correspondence is one long (nearly a thousand pages) love letter between two of the best poets of their generation. Both Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell were personally tortured by their demons (her was alcohol, his was manic-depression) and failed relationships. Though never lovers, their's was a marriage of the minds via the mail for thirty years. It is helpful, though not vital, that ...

Excellent!
My daughter started reading some phonic cards when she was almost 5 and I was immediately in a panic that I couldn't explain why ow made an O sound in blow and an ow sound in clown. I found this book and in less than six months her penmanship has improved beyond my wildest expectations and she is able to read early reader books on her own. It has been so empowering for her and for me to be able ...

Chatto & Windus, 1977

Very god variety of quality poems. A fantastic author!
This book has some very high quality poems. Although all of them are not prize winners, Bishop uses incredible imagery, wording, and rythm to create her piece. I believe that more of Bishop's work should be included in the classic poetry curiculum.

The Diary of "Helena Morley"

3 reviews
Elizabeth Bishop

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1995

Great
Unpretentious, yet magically beautiful. A young girl's diary of three years of her life in the end of the XIX century in a small diamond-extracting town in Brazil. Not meant for publication, the author gathered her writings to organize a booklet for her grand-daughters. When she was convinced to publish it, she could never dream it would turn out to be translated into many other languages. A ...

Elizabeth Bishop

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2006

The Making Of A Poet
Elizabeth Bishop published less than 100 poems prior to her death in 1979. This new collection is similiar to a box CD set of studio out-takes of a rock musician : not essential for the causal reader but a must for a true believer of the artist. It is the definitive edition of her unpublished work with extensive notes and annotations. Some of her private poetry is considerably more erotic and ...

Beautifully illustrated, well written and helpful
This is one of several tutorial packages I bought at the same time to help me learn the Adobe CS3 suite of web-related programs. I wanted to determine which was the best to start with, so I sampled a couple of chapters from each of about six titles before deciding this was the clearly best of the group to get me started. My main interest is in learning Flash, but I've got a use for almost ...

Ministry of Whimsy Press, 2003

Not every anthology should be a Leviathan
From the Ministry of Whimsy Press, publishers of the fantastic LEVIATHAN anthology series, comes this first in a new series: ALBUM ZUTIQUE. "A series," the back cover notes, "devoted to the surreal & decadent." Yes, yes, and so it is. But is it good? You bet. The fifteen stories contained herein are all beautifully written, truly a feast for the eyes and the mind. There were a couple stories ...

The Voice of the Poet : Elizabeth Bishop

3 reviews

Random House Audio, 2000

Bishop converses...
The Bishop on this tape is a surprise. She reads easily, congenially, interrupts herself to comment on what she's doing. She's funny, and the humor that's under the surface of the poems gets to bubble up at odd moments. It's a great selection of poems, and it's fantastically handy to have the booklet of the texts of the poems (some of which are interestingly different from the versions ...

The Collected Prose
As in all of the writings by Elizabeth Bishop, The Collected Prose allows the reader to open the door into her masterfully brilliant and private world of thoughts. I took this book to the beach each night before the sun went down and read one or two of her poems ... Bishop's ability to connect our everyday actions with a deeper, higher meaning makes this book one of my all time favorites. ...
