Top 3 are daughters.
The tagged one is a US first edition and blew a lot of the budget!

I‘m still smiling- such a lovely place.

Excuse the bad photo! Just too tired to go and take it again! This one not actually from Ariel 😁 it‘s still beautiful though.
pickNot even sure if I can ever consider this fully read. It‘s one I will have to revisit as I learn more about Plath‘s life, as my own self and mental health may develop, and just one I will have to revisit to discern all hidden in beautifully woven words. Truly a lot of talent lost too young.
Sylvia had a way of writing that causes the reader to feel her words deeply, as if her lore could penetrate one's bones.
pickI finally read The Bell Jar & loved it so much I read this volume of poetry.
Like all poetry, what you love, you love. What doesn‘t resonate with you... 🤷🏻♀️
It‘s helpful to know when in the poet‘s life these were collected. I don‘t know enough about Plath yet to fully appreciate all these poems.
Of particular enjoyment, though, were:
The Eye-mote
Faun
Lorelei
The Ghost‘s Leavetaking
Spinster
I tried using the first line to announce my last pregnancy on Facebook. No one got it. 🤷
