Since her death in 1979, however, her reputation has grown to the point that many critics, like Larry Rohter in the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem style=\"\"\u003eNew York Times,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e have referred to her as \"one of the most important American poets\" of the 20th century. Bishop was a perfectionist who did not write prolifically, preferring instead to spend long periods of time polishing her work. She published only 101 poems during her lifetime. Her verse is marked by precise descriptions of the physical world and an air of poetic serenity, but her underlying themes include the struggle to find a sense of belonging, and the human experiences of grief and longing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093598425247,"sku":"15855","price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Bishop_2C_Elizabeth_Geography_III_signed_15855a.jpg?v=1722189090","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/15855-bishop-elizabeth-geography-iii-signed","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
