"In this book, novelist Colm Tóibín offers a deeply personal introduction to the
work and life of one of his most important literary influences--the American poet
Elizabeth Bishop. Ranging across her poetry, prose, letters, and biography, Tóibín
creates a vivid picture of Bishop while also revealing how her work has helped shape
his sensibility as a novelist and how her experiences of loss and exile resonate with
his own. What emerges is a compelling double portrait that will intrigue readers interested
in both Bishop and Tóibín"
