Summary
Critics and biographers praise Elizabeth Bishop's poetry but have little to say about how it does its sublime work-in the ear and in the mind's eye. Eleanor Cook examines in detail Bishop's diction, syntax, rhythm, and meter, her acute sense of place, and her attention to the natural world. Writers, readers, and teachers will all benefit.
