Description
First Edition. 8vo, original quarter black cloth over gray boards in the dustjacket. A very good copy .
Edizione: “in this first full-scale critical study, judith kroll sees plath’s poetry as going much deeper than the autobiographical surface meaning, in fact comprising an entire, elaborate mythology - influenced strongly by robert graves’s “white goddess” - the ultimate purpose of which is to bring the poet into a kind of spiritual transcendence that resolves a number of intolerable tensions in her life. this brilliantly conceived book transforms our understanding of one of the most important and most intelligent poets of the twentieth century.”-publisher
