A review by rosandebie
Your Story, My Story by Connie Palmen

4.0

This book was not really my cup of tea, but I was surprised to find that, after the initial "getting used to"-phase, this book was relatively "easy" to read. Palmen gives Hughes a voice, and with his voice unfolds the complicated relationship between him, Plath, and their shared and personal demons. I think previous knowledge of Hughes, Plath, and their work, might be useful to understand the book better, but it is definitely not necessary.
