Shura's Birth
There was a snowstorm on [Wednesday] 3 March 1965, when Assia was admitted to the delivery room of Charing Cross Hospital [in London]. She was in labor for nine hours, which were quite bearable except for the last 45 minutes. “I emerged whole, ecstatic (in which condition I have been for ten days) and so did my daughter Shura (to rhyme with Jura) whose full name is Alexandra Tatiana...

The VERY BAD Sylvia Plath-Comic week!
A new week, a new topic… this week we had an !!ACCIDENTAL!! VERY BAD Sylvia Plath-Comic week!
A while ago, I have been searching for Sylvia Plath comics. There is so much Sylvia related stuff out there and I was sure, there must also be some comics.
However, the majority of Sylvia Plath comics I found, weren’t funny, cool or good at all!
Most of them were disrespectful,...

Suicide Off Egg Rock
Behind him the hotdogs split and drizzled On the public grills, and the ochreous salt flats, Gas tanks, factory stacks — that landscape Of imperfections his bowels were part of — Rippled and pulsed in the glassy updraught. Sun struck the water like a damnation. No pit of shadow to crawl into, And his blood beating the old tattoo I am, I am, I am. Children Were squealing where...

My Mother
They are killing her again. She said she did it One year in every ten, But they do it annually, or weekly, Some even do it daily, Carrying her death around in their heads And practising it. She saves them The trouble of their own; They can die through her Without ever making The decision. My buried mother Is up-dug for repeat performances. Now they want to make a film For anyone...

Does anyone know WHY???
“Sometimes I dream of a tree, And the tree is my life. One branch is the man I shall marry And the leaves are my children. Another branch is my future as a writer And each leaf is a poem. Another branch is a glittering academic career. But as I sit there, trying to choose, The leaves begin to turn brown and blow away Until the tree is absolutely bare.”
I watched the movie “Sylvia”...

The "Sylvia" movie week!
Another week, another topic… this week we gonna have a week featuring the “Sylvia” movie from 2003 starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Daniel Craig.
I know many people are not particularly fond of this movie, but I have to say that I really like it. Ok, maybe it’s not 100% accurate, but I think Gwyneth does an awesome job and portrays Sylvia in a great way. Not simply crazy, but very...
