Formerly Poet Laureate to Queen Elizabeth II, the late Ted Hughes (1930-98) is recognized as one of the few contemporary poets whose work has mythic scope and power. And few episodes in postwar literature have the legendary stature of Hughes's romance with, and marriage to, the great American poet Sylvia Plath. The poems in "Birthday Letters" are addressed (with just two exceptions) to Plath, and were written over a period of more than twenty-five years, the first a few years after her suicide in 1963. Some are love letters, others haunted recollections and ruminations. In them, Hughes recalls his and Plath's time together, drawing on the powerful imagery of his work--animal, vegetable, mythological--as well as on Plath's famous verse. Countless books have discussed the subject of this intense relationship from a necessary distance, but this volume--at last--offers us Hughes's own account. Moreover, it is a truly remarkable collection of pems in its own right.

評分眾所周知 lyrical poets have cold hearts. 他對她最真摯的情感也隻是她雙眸中倒映的自己。即使如此1953年他們初次相遇的launch party曾經顯得多麼的命中注定!星球在宇宙中移動的軌跡,無論當事人知曉與否,締結瞭因緣。哎,但是命中注定的錯誤。他從來沒有真正理解過她。 Incidentally, Ted Hughes was also a Pembroke man.
