About a month ago I noticed this article in the Sunday Style section about some of Sylvia Plath’s personal belongings up for sale — “Who Bought Sylvia Plath’s Stuff?” At the time, I felt compelled to get a screen shot and I saved the article in PDF. I didn’t know at the time that she would be coming up in our class — she rarely does in WRD First Year Writing courses, because we don’t really spend time with fiction and poetry. But she did come up, about a month later — serendipity! — and we had a good discussion of her work, which many of you read in high school.
So I thought I’d share this interesting article. (PDF here.)
