As in the midst of life we are in death, so , in Bishop's poetry, in the midst of the familiar, and most especially there, we feel the familiar as the unknowable. "I lost two cities, lovely ones. And vaster,some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent...the art of losing's not too hard to masterthough it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.""A moose has come out of/ the i... A crusty crankiness at modern life in Manhattan opens this collection: we live in "numbered caves in enormous jails," surrounded by the "lawless marches" of the Asphalt Lands; "mean cafes" entertain the lazy, while the stultified workers view "vulgar rubbish" and listen to "witless noise", making their "lewd fancies...of flesh debased."Nothing Auden does of his own and on his own is ever uninteresting: as the liveliest man-of-letters in the English-speaking world, he deserves front pages; his trifles are better than others' lifework."We can only do what it seems to us we were made for, look at the world with a happy eye but from a sober perspective."His enduring status as an outsider--the bachelor among the married, the Englishman among New Yorkers (or Austrians or Greeks), the ...

The preeminent question life asked of Stevens was whether the sublime was livable.Steven's sense of the world became one of extreme relativity, and an almost killing skepticism arose in him about his own statements, even those most deeply felt. "The things that we build or grow or do are so little when compared to the things that we suggest or believe or desire"......it is perhaps only the necessary linear form of poetry which prompts us to interpret poems more allegorically than we normally do the visual arts and forces us to see a poem as a problem secreting its own resolutions....the poem finds a middle ground of tone which is neither grand nor satiric, but may be called evaluative: ...I pursuedAnd still pursue, the origin and courseOf love, but until now I never knewThat f...
