Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 by Elizabeth Winder

5.0

One of the better books about Sylvia in her younger years, I found this to be very interesting and engaging. The many sources, interviews and excerpts from her journals paints a very real view of who Sylvia Plath was. I found it refreshing that the book didn't go the dour path with her bad experiences, and instead focused on her as a person, and her organic reactions to things.
