Beskrivning
Despite being widely studied on both undergraduate and postgraduate courses the writing of Sylvia Plath has been relatively neglected in relation to the attention given to her life and what drove her to suicide. Tracy Brain aims to remedy this by introducing completely new approaches to Plath's writing, taking the studies away from the familiar concentration to reveal that Plath as a writer was concerned with a much wider range of important cultural and political topics. Unlike most of the existing literary criticism it shifts the focus away from biographical readings and encompasses the full range of Plath's poetry, prose, journals and letters using a variety of critical methods.

Recensioner i media

"a valuable, important book...painstaking and lucid" 'I would certainly want to use it as a textbook.' 'I wolfed it down in one rapid reading, which will be followed by numerous intensive close re-readings. It is bound to be immensely helpful...' 'I am grateful for the authoritative information about manuscript evidence.' ' ...what prompted this letter, aside from the surge of admiration your book produced in me...' ' ...a valuable, important book--so painstaking and lucid about issues fundamental to critical evaluation of these poets.'' ['poets' here refers to Plath and Hughes] 'My thanks for all your hard work, and my gratitude for your critical acumen.' Diane Ward Middlebrook, Professor of English, Standford University.
