Kristin's essay understands psychoanalysis, homeopathy, rage, humor, all of the archives, poetry, and also how you get "from ordinary calamities, a cut thumb or dead father or collapsed marriage, to the camps and the bomb." It's so good, what are you waiting for?

You should right now—right now!—read @kristingrogan.bsky.social on Sylvia Plath in @bostonreview.bsky.social. More than a review of the new definitive Plath books, more than a survey of how she's been read, it's an authoritative account of how Plath's poems work and and how we should read her.
