Holy Hell!!! I've never heard a more pathetic overly melodramatic reading. She didn't even pre-read the poem. Blasphemy, blech! I came to this site to hear the poem, not to hear her read a part and then kibbitz. the horror, the horror.

She completely ignored the dynamic rhythms of Plath's poetry. In reading in such an overly--emphatic manner, stressing every word, she missed the musicality of the poem, and rather than bringing to prominence the poem's significant moments, she brought none of them to prominence.
