In 1938, both Bishop and Crane fell in love with the simplicity of a small town called Key West, in Florida, where they bought a house and established their lives. Even living there, they still had contact with the literary circle of New York, and frequently received writers and artists in their house."More papers on The Life and Works of Elizabeth Bishop:
