Lloyd Schwartz has written a new book about one of my favorite poets: Elizabeth Bishop. Listen to an interview on NPR with Schwartz about his experience meeting Elizabeth Bishop.

This will link you to the Favorite Poem Project’s videos: Americans reading their favorite poems. Each poem is introduced by a short prologue in which the reader explains why the poem is meaningful to her or him.

Be sure to follow along with the text as the poem is read.
