I'm Brazilian and she reads the poem that she wrotes about the the city I live here called Santarém in Brazil, which she once visited by boat when she was seeing the Amazon ❤ I love Elizabeth and her poetry so much
J.D. McClatchy asked Elizabeth Bishop about the issue of National Geographic mentioned in 'In The Waiting Room,' his concern being the Article mentioned and its not having actually appeared within the pages of the issue specified; McClatchy, who repeatedly expressed a great admiration for Bishop's work, told our class her response was "[A] laugh, one that, though not expressing surprise, caused surprise - not because it was a laugh, not because it was louder than what [he] would've expected had he ever had been asked just what to expect, but because of the 'elegant simplicity of expression' exuded by her laugh." McClatchy was, at the time of his meeting Bishop, a young Poet with but a few publications, and while Bishop's status, particularly during the time during which McClatchy was referring, was enviable, he was sure to comment that her disposition was that of an individual blessed naturally with the gift of charm, "A blessing most rare."
I’m not surprised Sandy McClatchy tracked down the February 1918 National Geographic, as curiosity got the best of me as well - I don’t do more than flash a single interior photograph in this video, but you’ll get the gist if you know “In The Waiting Room” - ua-cam.com/video/a05-0LkSHAI/v-deo.html Osa and Martin Johnson do not appear in the issue, but explorers dressed very much like them are photographed in a volcanic Alaskan frontier - Bishop fans familiar with “Crusoe in England” will find surprising resonances. Bishop wrote to someone in “One Art” (her collected letters) about the New Yorker fact-checkers who looked up that Feb 1918 National Geographic, and how delighted she was at how much she DID remember from it.

You are great Bishop !👏👏🗼❤❤
Bishop was just fabulous! Only Sylvia Plath's work can be compared to hers... BRAVO!
Poor Elizabeth! Just two years before she died.

So wonderful.
Betty Gibbons? I wonder what is the connection with Bishop? I am a Gibbons, so I'm curious.
I relate to her
is that her voice?
Yes, it is.
