An Awful But Cheerful Grave

In this episode, Caitlin, in keeping with the new format, tells Frances all about the awful, cheerful, amazing, and quite sad life of Elizabeth Bishop. Frances is suitably impressed.

Accessibility Description: A large, rounded square grave on a double-base with some scroll work on the top corners. There is a small collection of rocks on top of the stone and numerous headstones in the background. It reads: Elizabeth Bishop | 1911 - 1979 | All the untidy activity continues | Awful, but cheerful.
