“Made up of poems that are so original in their style and so startlingly accomplished in their confessional voice that they helped change the direction of contemporary poetry, Ariel is a masterpiece.” — New York Observer
Sylvia Plath's famous collection, as she intended it.
When Sylvia Plath died, she not only left behind a prolific life but also her unpublished literary masterpiece, Ariel. When her husband, Ted Hughes, first brought this poetry collection to the public, it garnered worldwide acclaim, but it wasn't the draft Sylvia had wanted her readers to see. This facsimile edition restores, for the first time, Plath's original manuscript—including handwritten notes—and her own selection and arrangement of poems. This edition also includes in facsimile the complete working drafts of her poem "Ariel," which provide a rare glimpse into the creative process of a beloved American poet. This publication introduces a truer version of Plath's works, and will alter her legacy forever.
This restored edition reveals the masterpiece as Plath conceived it:
The Original Manuscript: See the poems in Plath’s chosen order and structure for the first time, free from posthumous alterations. The Author’s Vision: Experience the raw, startlingly original voice that helped change the direction of contemporary poetry. Handwritten Notes: Explore Plath’s own notes and revisions, offering an intimate look at her craft and intentions. The Creative Process: Delve into the complete working drafts of the title poem, "Ariel," to witness the evolution of a masterpiece.
