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.
