Description: Suitable for those interested in Sylvia Plath, this title presents the study of Plath's poetry. It shows that Plath's poems form a mythic biography, presided over by a 'Moon-Muse', in which depictions of death are nearly always matched with visions of rebirth and transformation. It is an examination of one of the 20th century's great poets.
