  You are welcome. I believe that this is the 3rd Plath clip I have done for VFtG, which is one of my favourite regular features of this blog. I love poetry, but it has to be the right poetry.

This is great. I studied Plath’s work in college in depth, and even visited Smith College to see some of her archives there for my thesis. I always have respected her work, and found her voice to be unique and powerful. Thanks for posting!

  Lucky you, getting to delve into her archives like that. I’ve written extensively on Plath, but have never set foot on her home turf. How fantastic!
