Ariel

“Dying – an art not unlike any other. In it, I have achieved a fair amount of perfection.” Sylvia Plath – an iconic American poet and Pulitzer Prize winner. A symbol of confessional poetry. A martyr, feminist, rebel – she can be described in many ways. But there is one indisputable fact: it is simply impossible to imagine the poetry of the 20th century without her. The collection of poems “Ariel” is rightly considered one of Sylvia Plath's best works. It was published in 1965, two years after the author's death. In Russia, “Ariel” is being published for the first time.
