Description

Do you want to learn more about Sylvia Plath's life and legacy? This biography covers the life of Sylvia Plath, from her birth in Boston to her death in London at the age of thirty. Plath left a large legacy, both personal and public. She is one of the most celebrated female poets in history and is widely taught in school. This is remarked upon, but the effects of her life and passing on those who knew her is also included. The cultural, social and personal ramifications of both her life as a person, the value we assign her, and her writing are examined. Ultimately, this biography is a tribute to Plath. As a person she has been an inspiration to many, but I feel her true calling in the capacity of a writer will always inspire many more. Her life, work, and the further writing and poetry movements she incited will be with us forever, and that is her legacy. Her poetry and death are also discussed, and the effects this had on critics and the public in their opinions of her work is speculated on. No biography or review can ever be completely unbiased by circumstances of the author’s death. Grab your copy now! (Source: Google Books API)
