Description

The complete, uncensored journals of Sylvia Plath—essential reading for anyone who has been moved and fascinated by the poet's life and work.

"A genuine literary event.... Plath's journals contain marvels of discovery." —The New York Times Book Review 

Sylvia Plath's journals were originally published in 1982 in a heavily abridged version authorized by Plath's husband, Ted Hughes. This new edition is an exact and complete transcription of the diaries Plath kept during the last twelve years of her life. Sixty percent of the book is material that has never before been made public, more fully revealing the intensity of the poet's personal and literary struggles, and providing fresh insight into both her frequent desperation and the bravery with which she faced down her demons.

People tend to say you shouldn‘t read Plath if you‘re depressed, but OH LORD THAT WOMAN IS A KISS TO MY THOUGHTS

deeply personal, insightful, and thought-provoking. plaths entries from when she was 18 (!!) are written more thoughtfully and beautifully than i could ever hope to write anything. ever.
