Produktbeschreibung
Sylvia Plath has been one of the great literary figures of the twentieth century, whose work has not yet exhausted the inspiration of her readers. But behind the appearance of the beautiful, blonde American housewife, with which the poet liked to present herself in her most successful years, are hidden the tragic and problematic features of a fragile, passionate and ambitious woman, who does not easily integrate into her myth. Separated from her husband Ted Hughes, she committed suicide out of jealousy at the age of 30. To the fame of her poems was added the notoriety of the tragedy, which tempted many to write their versions of the story. Janet Malcolm interrogates various people who once had something to do with Sylvia Plath to reconstruct the plot of memories and speculations. With her excellent narrative style, the author unmasks the indiscretion, the lust for scandal and half-truths about the poet and her marriage, her encounters with Plath's biographers, the strange manipulation of her legacy, jealously guarded by her husband, all in a critical and brilliant lesson on biography as a literary genre, which one would say leads to a new genre: A metabiography, constructed as a subtle weaving of fragments of poems, letters, stories and dialogues, which reveals a Sylvia Plath totally different from the one we have been introduced to so far.
