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.
For Tóibín, the secret of Bishop’s emotional power is in what she leaves unsaid. Exploring Bishop’s famous attention to detail, Tóibín describes how Bishop is able to convey great emotion indirectly, through precise descriptions of particular settings, objects, and events. He examines how Bishop’s attachment to the Nova Scotia of her childhood, despite her later life in Key West and Brazil, is related to her early loss of her parents—and how this connection finds echoes in Tóibín’s life as an Irish writer who has lived in Barcelona, New York, and elsewhere.
Beautifully written and skillfully blending biography, literary appreciation, and descriptions of Tóibín’s travels to Bishop’s Nova Scotia, Key West, and Brazil, On Elizabeth Bishop provides a fresh and memorable look at a beloved poet even as it gives us a window into the mind of one of today’s most acclaimed novelists.

评分托賓是說 Bishop凝練簡潔到吝嗇的詩句背後其實有悲傷的千言萬語
评分后半本太多的笔墨被花在了毕肖普的交游上——Robert Lowell,Moore,书信的援引与成串的八卦(虽说八卦本身自然是好看的,不管是坚持把Tart改成tartine的毕肖普还是表示old boy不等于vieux garçon的艾略特。诗人对词语的精准把握真是让人赞叹)。然而托宾自己也强调了毕肖普在写作中的克制,想来她不会乐意见到自己费数十年埋在语词之下的东西被这般轻易地刨出来曝晒在日光之下。纵观全书,诗歌反而显得相对不那么重要,而关于诗歌的论述往往有些随意(譬如一整章对毕肖普和Gunn的对比),尽管一些根本性的观察非常准确。
评分托賓是說 Bishop凝練簡潔到吝嗇的詩句背後其實有悲傷的千言萬語
评分Close close all night the lovers keep. They turn together in their sleep. Close as two pages in a book. that read each other in the dark. Each knows all the other knows learned by heart from head to toes.
