The Collected Poems Paperback – March 6, 2018

If you love Sylvia Plath This book should be in your collection. I highly recommend!

I bought The Collected Poems Sylvia Plath because I wanted to explore Plath's work. I don't remember reading Plath's work before, but several of the poems had a familiar feel to them so I must have read her at some point. As I read, I often felt an eerie connection to the words on the page. At times they felt like they mirrored thoughts and feelings I'd had about experiences in my own life. At other times I struggled to even make sense of the poems, but even those poems had a haunting essence to them. Plath used life itself to paint emotions and feelings and observations on the words she chose to put on the page. This collection includes a section after the main book of poems she wrote when she was younger. Those poems had a naivete that offered an unexpected rawness in their more traditional form and choice of words. I highly recommend The Collected Poems Sylvia Plath for anyone who is interested in Plath's work or in poetry in general. The Collected Poems Sylvia Plath is a great read filled with thought-provoking, emotionally challenging, and overall engaging poetry.

Original.

I already own this book and I love her poetry. I was able to share them with someone special with this delivery.

The book is a great read but came with a water stain on the bottom. Was a gift so I was a little disappointed but overall fine

Purchased this for a family member. This author has a very interesting history which makes reading this even more intriguing.

nothing wrong with it except for a little scuffing

Arrived in perfect condition! I am overjoyed to have Sylvia on my nightstand to keep me company when I have insomnia at 3am.
