詩人Elizabeth Bishop的詩集陪伴我將近十年了,在美國讀書時,我最喜歡的課就是研究Bishop的討論會,她總是帶著雲淡風輕的口吻說著人生各式各樣的重大議題,但是背後卻有著無限的感情和想像空間。心情紛亂的時候,讀Bishop的詩集讓我能夠平心靜氣,因為太喜歡她的詩作,我為她的代表作One Art做了本小書。
The collection of Elizabeth Bishop's poetry has accompanied me for almost ten years. When I was studying in Rochester, my favorite course was Bishop's poetry. She always narrates major topics in life in a nonchalant tone, but the reader can feel waves of emotion behind her carefully-chosen words. When my heart seeks for peace, I turn to Bishop's works because they never fail to calm me down. Because I like her poems too much, I made a little book for the famous poem One Art.

這種豁達的想法,人生變得很開濶,很輕盈,雖然我也想要奉行這種態度,不過作起來真的很不容易,昨天看到有個人身上的衣服有一句話說得好:Play the game! Everybody must learn to lose.
可是我覺得她把沉重藏在輕盈的字面下呢!
我最近好像瘋了,每天回家都想要做一本小書,結果把自己弄得太興奮,睡也睡不好,真的是瘋狂藝術家!
我很喜歡你的小書呢!
一直想著有空(雖然機會渺茫)
也要讓我的學生們來做做自己的小書!
相信他們也會像妳一樣興奮瘋狂吧!:]
有空可以讓學生玩玩看,我是很享受啦!當回家作業也可以啊!
Lovely.....
I have one of "the selected poems of E. Bishop" with me beside the bed. ^_^
Don't you find Bishop's poems really comforting? Anyway, when I am restless, I turn to her poetry and eventually find mental peace...
Shame on me. though I have a copy of Bishop's poems, yet, I didn't study her work that carefully. but I do enjoy go through few lines before bed from time to time then.
好厲害的 miragee, 不但中英文雙全
藝術才氣也了得喔!!
darkdarling: Oh, I haven't read Bishop's poems seriously since I came back from the States ages ago. I just go over some poems I especially like when I seek for mental peace...
I am not that good as you think. I just happen to love art and words A LOT...
