This website is dedicated to the life and work of Sylvia Plath (1932 - 1963).

Sometimes I dream of a tree and the tree is my life. One branch is the man I shall marry and the leaves are my children. Another branch is my future as a writer and each leaf is a poem. Another branch is a glittering academic career. But as I sit there trying to choose the leaves begin to turn brown and blow away until the tree is absolutely bare.
