Like all poets, she was less a maker of poems than a maker of feelings." "[S]he is one of the best craftsmen alive....Bishop's poems are so carefully fitted together, her descriptions give such body to her reflections, and her reflections so heighten her descriptions that it is hard to indicate her stature and solidity by quotation....'North and South' can be read straight through with excitement." "[H]ow perfectly they balance devotion to fact and to memory and desire, how beautifully they combine toughness and elegance of mind." Publisher's noteA definitive edition of the poet's works that includes fifty previously unpublished or uncollected poems and translations, in addition to the full texts of the award-winning collections "North & South," "A Cold Spring," "Questions of Travel," and "Geography III" AnnotationThe edition of Bishop's complete poems published in 1968 won the National Book Award. This is a more complete, updated collection, published after her death in 1979.
