First American edition. 8vo, publisher’s original black cloth over boards, lettered in gilt original pictorially decorated dustjacket. (10), (198) pp. A very fine copy in very fine dustjacket.
Edizione: “ted hughes’s birthday letters are addressed, with just two exceptions, to sylvia plath, the poet to whom he was married. they were written over a period of more than twenty-five years, the first a few years after her suicide in 1963. intimate and candid in manner, they are largely concerned with the psychological drama that led both to the writing of her greatest poems and to her death.”
