Recenzii

The word indispensable can be used indiscriminately at times, but this collection of excellent essays by excellent scholars is the definition of indispensable, both for Plath scholarship and for twenty-first century poetry criticism. Read it. Read all of it.
This substantial compendium of exciting and original scholarship promises to reshape the study of Plath and her work. Helle, Golden, and O'Brien have brought together chapters informed by life writing, pedagogy, disability studies, gender studies, and archive studies, and have positioned Plath among other writers-and her own readers-in ways that thrillingly illuminate her oeuvre. Standout pieces include much-needed interventions on race, upon which those working in Plath studies will hopefully build. Through their judicious and creative selection of essays, the editors of this major contribution offer new thinking about the poet's archive, her readers, her sociohistorical moment, and her cultural significance that have implications for scholars well beyond the single-author field.
The editors of this comprehensive collection easily make the case for more scholarly and critical work on Sylvia Plath. They cite her evolving and expanding archive and publications, including a restored edition of Ariel, the edition of Plath's collected letters, and Emory University's recent acquisition of the Harriet Rosenstein papers. Not only are their new things to say about Sylvia Plath, whose "global stature,"needs no defense, there are new approaches to the study of her work and life that this volume explores.
