(Poorly lit) #bookmail ! When I signed up for Library of America's subscription plan, I basically told them to send me everything - not just the new stuff. So every six weeks is a surprise, and I'm really happy with this one. Bishop is a poet I don't know too well, but it seems like she wrote often about the natural world and a sense of place - two things I love! #yearofpoetry
