She dates boys, some who I found quite interesting. Throughout high school and college, Sylvia continues to write and excel in school. Her mother came across to me as a very strong woman, who made ends meet and raised her children. A writer from a very young age, Sylvia endures the death of her father at a young age. Paul Alexander writes with great pace and purpose recounting the event''s of Sylvia Plath''s life. Having read the "Rough Magic" reviews that others have left here, I picked it up and just completed reading it. I worked at Borders and knew who she was, so I finally read "The Bell Jar," which I thought was amazing and was left fascinated with Plath''s storytelling and style. I was first introduced to Sylvia Plath through a Ryan Adams song of the same name some six years ago. The bestselling autobiographical novel The Bell Jar illuminated her life for millions of fans, followed by The Colossus, Ariel, and the Pulitzer-Prize winning Collected Poems.īased on exclusive interviews and extensive archival research, Rough Magic probes the events of Plath's life-including her turbulent marriage to the English poet Ted Hughes-in the first biography to take a compassionate view of this fiercely talented, deeply troubled artist. Since her infamous suicide at age thirty, Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) has been celebrated for her impeccable and ruthless poetry, which excels at describing the most extreme reaches of human consciousness and passions.
