Sylvia Plath
- Ariel
- Sylvia Plath churned out her final poems at the remarkable rate of two or three a day, and Robert Lowell describes them as written by "hardly a person at all . but one of those super-real, hypnotic, great classical heroines." Even more remarkable, she wrote them during one of the coldest, snowiest winters (1962-63) Londoners have ever known.
- Ariel
- Née en 1932 dans le Massachusetts, Sylvia Plath fait ses études à Smith College et à Cambridge, en Angleterre. Son père meurt en 1940 ; cette mort marquera toute son uvre. En 1953, elle tente de se suicider, et fait plusieurs séjours en établissements psychiatriques.
- The Journals of Sylvia Plath, 1950-1962
- Sylvia Plath kept a record of her life from the age of 11 until her death at 30. The journals are characterised by the vigorous immediacy with which she records her inner thoughts and feelings and the intricacies of her daily life.
- The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
- From reviews of the British edition:"A literary event.The book has a raw immediacy that will only add to Plath's iconic reputation." -Harpers & Queens"The journals are cause for celebration.Given the intensity and rawness of their writing, at moments it feels like walking straight into someone else's dream.
- The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
- In the decades that have followed Sylvia Plath's suicide in February 1963, much has been written and speculated about her life, most particularly about her marriage to fellow poet Ted Hughes and her last months spent writing the stark, confessional poems that were to become Ariel.
- The Bell Jar
- The Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under -- maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's insanity becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies.
