This study examines the way Plath made herself into a writer. Close analysis of Plath’s reading and apprenticeship writing both in fiction and poetry sheds considerable light on Plath’s work in the late 1960s. This updated edition discusses of the aftermath of Plath’s death including the publication of her Collected Poems edited by Ted Hughes which won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1982. Biographies of Plath are examined along with the publication of Hughes’s Birthday Letters . A chronology maps out key events and publications both in Plath’s lifetime and posthumously.
