Plath, Sylvia, 1932-1963. Lowell, Robert.
Ariel.
Publisher: NY, Harper & Row [c1966]. With a Foreword by Robert Lowell. 43 poems. 'In these poems, written in the last months of her life and often rushed out at the rate of two or three a day, Sylvia Plath becomes herself, becomes something imaginary, newly, wildly and subtly created-- hardly a person at all, or a woman, certainly not another 'poetess,' but one of those super-real, hypnotic, great classical heroines.' 85 p.; paper; ink owner's name. 30352

Malcolm, Janet. [Schaechter, Judith] [Plath, Sylvia, 1936-1963]
Annals of Biography: The Silent Woman [Sylvia Plath].
Publisher: in The New Yorker, LXIX: 27 (23/30 August 1993), pp. 84-159. Part I: 'Since her suicide, in 1963, the poet Sylvia Plath has drawn a succession of biographers to her unquiet grave. In death, as in life, she raises uncomfortable questions about her identity-- and about the nature of biography itself.' Part II: ''Bitter Fame', by Anne Stevenson, written with the coöperation of the Plath estate, attempted to shed new light on the Plath-Hughes marriage. Instead, it started a conflagration-- a literary scandal-- from which sparks are still flying.' Part III: 'The testimony of witnesses is the Achilles' heel of biography. The people who have come forward with their recollections of Plath in the tumultuous last months of her life have revealed much about themselves-- but only deepened our sense of the mystery of her death.' With Plath's poems 'Medusa', 'Letter in November', 'Tulips', 'The Rabbit Catcher', 'Death & Co.', and 'Edge'. With photographs, and a color front-cover illustration, 'Night Flower', a stained-glass window by Judith Schaechter. The front cover has two white surface tears where a label has been removed, and the first advertising page has been removed; VG. stock#30353.

Plath, Sylvia, 1932-1963. Plath, Aurelia Schober, editor.
Letters Home. Correspondence, 1950-1963. Selected and Edited with Commentary by Aurelia Schober Plath.
Publisher: Harper & Row [1975]. 'First Edition'. 502 p., index, photos. “Letters Home forms a kind of autobiography of at least one aspect of Sylvia Plath's very complex life; it also documents the flowering of a bright young woman with promising talents into a full-blown genius, one of the greatest writers of this century. We see here a fascinating relationship of great intricacy between mother and daughter-- there is much to be read between the lines. To readers who may have taken her work as straight biography, this book will bring Plath into perspective as a person and as a writer. It is a revelation.' Dj a bit worn; a few light marginal pencil notes; VG+. Stock#21052.
