About this product

Product Information

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.

    Plath's double exposed life...

    the best thing abotu this book is that it really higlights how different Plath's inner life was from what she projected at school and with her family. Like the Bell Jar, it gives the reader a keyhole to see into her mental instability. If you'r eat all entranced by her life, you need to read this. Very personal, strong and rivetting. Some of it is mundane, but her obsessions come to light in this book..from how she felt about her husband's infidelity to her characatures of real people (she wrote detailed descriptions of people's outfits, their homes.) Definitely worth the read if you like Plath or her work.
