Description

The poems in Sylvia Plath''s Ariel, including many of her best-known such as ''Lady Lazarus'', ''Daddy'', ''Edge'' and ''Paralytic'', were all written between the publication in 1960 of Plath''s first book, The Colossus, and her death in 1963.

''If the poems are despairing, vengeful and destructive, they are at the same time tender, open to things, and also unusually clever, sardonic, hardminded . . . They are works of great artistic purity and, despite all the nihilism, great generosity . . . the book is a major literary event.'' A. Alvarez in the Observer

This beautifully designed edition forms part of a series with five other cherished poets, including Wendy Cope, Don Paterson, Philip Larkin, Simon Armitage and Alice Oswald.

Wow was für eine explosive Wut

Es war schmerzhaft, brutal, dramatisch und ehrlich! Was sie durchgemacht hat können wahrscheinlich nur die wenigsten nachvollziehen was auch gut ist. Ab Mitte von Ariel wurde es recht wirr und man kommt teilweise ohne Hintergrundwissen oder Hilfen kaum mit. Die Zerstörung eines Menschen ist hier zu fühlen.

gut-punchy and so forceful

I'm afraid some of the poems went over my head. The language was beautiful definitely but I couldn't connect with the majority of the poems in here. I would like to reread it some time in the future and see how I feel then but until then this was just an OK read to me.

Herr God, Herr Lucifer Beware Beware Out of the ash I rise with my red hair And I eat men like air
