About Eyes of Some Robbers:

“Bishop’s phantasmagoric writing doesn’t adhere to common form or convention. She walks through her spirit world, using a knife to ‘cut the wires’ that blaze in ‘stolen desert’ as an unapologetic, multifaceted orator of truths. Bishop’s Eyes of Some Robbers stares down the ultimate monster, those collective, oft-ignored harms.”

Candice Louisa Daquin, Managing Editor, Lit Fox Books, author of The Cruelty

“With poems ranging from her childhood to her most recent years, this collection delves into the multifaceted nature of grief, despair, and inner strength. In Eyes of Some Robbers, Bishop endures the many faces of harm–personal, professional, societal–but leaves her readers with hope. Bishop has managed to synthesize it into a collection of profoundly personal poems.”

Mario E. Martinez, Editorial Manager, Bilingual Review/Revista Bilingüe, author of NEO-Laredo and The Chickens That Are Not Her Chickens

“Each poem is crystalline.  Chiseled and distillate.  As with much of Bishop’s work, there is a deeply ethereal, evocative quality, aptly enough based on a fairy tale.  And just like with a fairy tale, the reader is entranced, all the while knowing that danger lurks.  Frankly, each poem is a deceptive little explosion.  So lovely readers won’t know what hit them.  As I read, there were moments when I was literally knocked back in my seat.  It was that physical an experience.”

Nancy Dunlop, author of Hospital Poems
