The life and work of the poet Elizabeth Bishop are examined in this volume of the Voices & Visions documentary series. Bishop, who died in her late sixties in 1979, left behind a respectable body of work, including many poems that reflected her strong interest in perception and exploring the boundaries of consciousness. Mary McCarthy and Octavio Paz provide commentary. Readings of several of Bishop's poems are presented in the program, including The Moose, Pink Dog and One Art.
