Plath books:
The Haunting of Sylvia Plath (Jacqueline Rose)
Revising Life (Susan R Van Dyne)
Sylvia Plath: The Critical Heritage Series (Linda Wagner-Martin;
any of her books on Plath is tops, she's written about 3 or 4)
The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes (Janet Malcolm)
[Quite pro-Ted Hughes]
Bitter Fame (Anne Stevenson) [Also pro-Ted Hughes, but then that
might be Olwyn Hughes' influence on Stevenson]
These should be a good start. Revising Life is the most intelligent,
blow-you-away reading, in my mind.
Cheers,
Ivy
