One of my all time favorite books! Even if you've never read any of Ms Plaths poetry you will find her biography absolutely fascinating.

I have high expectations for a biography on Plath. Unfortunately for this one, a lot of the detail provided forms less of a narrative and more of a monotonous listing of inane details which puts the reader in a kind of hazy stupor...overall not my fave.
