520 Elizabeth Bishop's prose is not as well-known as her
poetry, but she was a dazzling and compelling prose writer,
too, as the publication of her letters has shown. Her
stories often border on memoir, and vice versa. From her
college days, she could find the most astonishing yet
thoroughly apt metaphors to illuminate her ideas. This
volume--edited by the poet, Pulitzer Prize-winning critic,
and Bishop scholar Lloyd Schwartz--includes virtually all
her published shorter prose pieces and a number of prose
works not published until after her death. Included here
are her famous as well as her lesser-known stories,
crucial memoirs, literary and travel essays, book reviews,
and--for the first time--the original draft of Brazil, the
Life World Library volume she repudiated in its published
version, as well as the relevant correspondence between
Bishop and the poet Anne Stevenson while the latter was
writing the first book-length critical study of Bishop's
work.
