Sylvia Plath - Interview & 'Lady Lazarus'

Plath's considerable literary talents, her troubled personal life, and suicide are well-documented - it is unnecessary to elaborate here...

I came across this recording. Although I do not have any video footage I believe it is worthy of being posted.

Is that really her reading it? I wasn't aware she spoke with a British accent.

[luckdial]

Yes, it is an authentic interview and reading.

I know im dreadfully sorry, I am a terrible speller.

Witty comeback though

@nervalian12 It's a mid-Atlantic accent, not a British one. Watch movies from the 50's, many Americans spoke with this accent at that time.

What an emo bitch. She didnt have to kill herself.

Her voice is NOTHING like I expected, holy damn. Guys in a few words how was the overall relationship with her and Hughes? I'm doing an essay... xD

@SagaciousSilence Dude... come on.

[SagaciousSilence]

I'd let Plath stick her Lady Lazarus in me!

Id love to see a video of her reading her poems or interviewing Her voice sounds so much older than 30years old
