<p>Review\nThe volume includes five essays, each quite different from the other, that should be classified as essential Bishop reading.--Jonathan F. S. Post, University of California, Los Angeles "Modern Philology"\nProvides a comprehensive and original guide to Elizabeth Bishop’s poetry and other writing, including literary criticism and prose fiction.\nFrom the Back Cover\n'Perhaps you thought you knew Elizabeth Bishop's work: I did. This book proves me gloriously wrong. These essays present a Bishop brilliantly and subtly dynamised for the 21st century--a funnier, sharper, messier, more mysterious and more profound poet than even her longtime admirers might have thought. Informed by recent archival discoveries, ongoing editorial work, and critical élan, Jonathan Ellis and his contributors powerfully and variously re-open the case of Bishop, with ramifying implications for poetics more generally.' Maureen N. McLane, New York University A comprehensive and original guide to Elizabeth Bishop's poetry and other writing, including correspondence, literary criticism, prose fiction and visual art Celebrating Elizabeth Bishop as an international writer with allegiances to various countries and national traditions, this collection of essays explores how Bishop moves between literal geographies like Nova Scotia, New England, Key West and Brazil and more philosophical categories like home and elsewhere, human and animal, insider and outsider. The book covers all aspects and periods of the author's career, from her early writing in the 1930s to the late poems finished after Geography III and those works published after her death. It also examines how Bishop's work has been read and reinterpreted by contemporary writers. Jonathan Ellis is Reader in American Literature at Sheffield University.

Review by Brian Lamb, author of The Good Campaigns Guide:"Jonathan Ellis is one of the voluntary sector's leading campaigners and an experienced trainer and facilitator who has worked in settings across the world. In this short but extremely helpful book he has managed to translate his inspirational style of talking about campaigning onto the page. He lays out the fundamentals of campaigning in an accessible and engaging way. His twelve simple steps are an excellent way of cutting into the ever more complex challenges of campaigning and will help any campaigner achieve clarity and be able to progress their work. But don't be fooled by the accessibility of this text into thinking it is just for those with little campaigning experience. There are fundamental insights here that we all need reminding of and examples to learn from. The book's lessons, gleaned from the UK and international experience, also mean that unusually it has broad applicability whatever type of campaign or whatever the context or country you are working in. Essential reading for all who aspire to change the world."

Written in plain and engaging language, it is the clearest exposition of the principles behind effective campaigning that I've come across.

Whether you are new to campaigning or a seasoned change-maker, this book will take you back to basics to check you are doing the best job you can for the people whose lives you seek to improve."</p>
