In 1956 Sylvia Plath wrote to her mother, Aurelia Plath: 'I feel I'm developing a kind of primitive style of my own which I am very fond of. Wait til you see. The Cambridge sketch was nothing compared to these.'Sylvia Plath cited art as her deepest source of inspiration but, while her poetry is celebrated around the world, her drawings are little known. This volume brings together drawings from 1955 to 1957, the period she spent on a Fulbright scholarship from the US at Newnham College, Cambridge. During this time she married Ted Hughes and travelled with him to Paris and Spain.First published as a catalogue for an exhibition at the Mayor Gallery, the tiny drawings in pen and ink are exquisitely observed. They include Parisian rooftops, trees and churches.

Sylvia Plath
Sylvia Plath foi uma poetisa, romancista e contista norte-americana. Reconhecida principalmente por sua obra poética, Sylvia Plath escreveu também um romance semi-autobiográfico, <i>A Redoma de Vidro</i>, sob o pseudônimo Victoria Lucas, com detalhamentos do histórico de sua luta contra a depressão. Assim como Anne Sexton, Sylvia Plath é creditada por dar continuidade ao gênero de poesia confessional, iniciado por Robert Lowell e W.D. Snodgrass.
