This new biography reveals just how she learned to marry her talent for life with her talent for writing in order to create a brilliant array of poems, prose, and letters--a remarkable body of work that would make her one of America's most beloved and celebrated poets. In Love Unknown, Thomas Travisano, founding president of the Elizabeth Bishop Society, tells the story of the famous poet and traveler's life. Bishop moved through extraordinary mid-twentieth century worlds with relationships among an extensive international array of literati, visual artists, musicians, scholars, and politicians--along with a cosmopolitan gay underground that was then nearly invisible to the dominant culture. Drawing on fresh interviews and newly discovered manuscript materials, Travisano illuminates that the 'art of losing' that Bishop celebrated with such poignant irony in her poem 'One Art'--perhaps her most famous--was linked in equal part to an 'art of finding,' Bishop's art and life having been devoted to the sort of encounters and epiphanies that so often appear in her work"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Bishop, Elizabeth, $d 1911-1979. 650 0 $a Women poets, American $v Biography. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Travisano, Thomas J., 1951- $t Love unknown. : $d [New York, New York] : Viking, [2019] $z 9780698191624 $w (DLC) 2019980677 941 $a 6 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100051.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317022731.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20200421011635.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200103020155.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200103011606.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191115081427.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=61096E92FF9A11E9A2D37E2597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
