Description
Elizabeth Bishop's life was a masterful blend of art and experience. This biography, Love Unknown, reveals how she transformed her relationships into brilliant poetry, prose, and letters. Drawing on fresh interviews and newly discovered manuscript materials, Thomas Travisano sheds light on the poet's extraordinary world of literati, visual artists, musicians, scholars, and politicians. Bishop's work is characterized by a poignant irony in celebrating "the art of losing," yet also an "art of finding." This biography illuminates how her life was devoted to encounters and epiphanies that appear in her most famous poems. With a deep understanding of Bishop's world, Travisano brings to light the poet's remarkable story. Through its pages, Love Unknown offers a nuanced exploration of one of America's most beloved poets, shedding new light on her life and work.
