Bishop's poems combine humor and sadness, pain and acceptance, and observe nature and lives in perfect miniaturist close-up. The themes central to her poetry are geography and landscape--from New England, where she grew up, to Brazil and Florida, where she later lived--human connection with the natural world, questions of knowledge and perception, and the ability or inability of form to control chaos. <p/>This new edition offers readers the opportunity to take in, entire, one of the great careers in twentiethcentury poetry.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Bishop was not just a good poet but a great one.
