"Anne Stevenson and Sylvia Plath and I came of age in the period when the need to keep up the pretense was strong: no one was prepared to ...face the post-Hiroshima and post-Auschwitz world. At the end of her life, Plath looked, with unnerving steadiness, at the Gorgons; She was able-she had been elected-to confront what most of the rest us fearfully shrank from. “For goodness sake, stop being so frightened of everything, Mother! "She wrote to Aurelia Plath in October 1962. "Almost every other word in your letter is 'frightened. In the same letter she said:It's too bad my poems frighten you. —"Silent Woman Janet Malcolm

Sylvia was the first female poet I ever read and still my favourite. Thank you.
