Publisher's Synopsis
The poetry of Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) attracts the attention of both readers and critics by her fabulous poetic craft which she wields to iconize her own embittered personal experiences. Hence, she becomes directly reputable after her premature death in February 11, 1963, for its order, harmony, organic unity, carefully employed devices and constant thematic implications.1 Plath, then, remains one of the well-known poets whose poetic works are critically examined and new phases of meanings and inspirations are innovatively concluded. Moreover, her poetic craft stems from her whirlwind relationships with her family members, in addition to some other harsh events such as refusals at academic courses, miscarriage and the rejection of publishing some of her poems and short stories. Under such heartbreaking pressures, Plath realizes that she has a quest for her true self that she has lost under such pressures.
