Muhammad Salim’s Reviews > Ariel > Status Update

Super collection of poems. Classic book of verse by a powerful poet. An entertaining, engaging and energising volume. Themes are well explored and images captivate and invoke. I'd wanted to commit myself to reading Plath, for years and years, and my opportunity came along. She hints at self-destruction and I found myself trying to find the destructive in all her lines. What was in her psyche? She left us gems.
