It seems entirely sensible to me; Iv'e looked though the  boojk a  
number of times at bookstores and not bought it once--and I  love  
Bishop's poetry. Of course particular scholars might need  access to  
this sort of material, but I think it does Bishop no  good.


Mike,I had trouble pulling up at that URL...I'll get in the library
tomorrow. But your last comment strikes me as odd...
"does Bishop no  good," it seems you're being a bit 
protective of her. I doubt her literary legacy could be
tarnished by any one book at this time. And it strikes me as
almost an impossibilty that all of her finished poems were
in print at the time of her death. She died in 1979 yet
the this book was published in 1983? Who got to decide...
The  Complete Poems 1927-1979 (1983)
