Why are we researching in Indigenous Studies, what has driven our motivations? How have our biographical experiences influenced our research?

Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) was one of the writers that defined the course of twentieth-century poetry. Her vivid, daring and complex poetry continues to captivate new generations of readers and writers. In the Letters, we discover the art of Plath's correspondence.

The letters document Plath's extraordinary literary development: the genesis ...
