About the author

Although she wrote less than many of her peers, the evident mastery of her poems secured for Elizabeth Bishop a leading position in American culture. Praised from the start for their clarity, wittily observed details, and tonal control, the descriptive surfaces of Bishop's poems reveal dark, abiding mysteries. She is the true successor to Robert Frost.

J. D. McClatchy is the author of eight collections of poetry and three collections of prose. He has edited numerous other books, including The Vintage Book of Contemporary American Poetry, and has written a number of opera libretti that have been performed at the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, La Scala, and elsewhere. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, where he served as president from 2009 to 2012. McClatchy teaches at Yale University and is editor of The Yale Review.
