Synopsis:
An expression of this extraordinary poet's life story in her own words. The letters--brilliant, lyrical, caustic, passionate, angry--are a consistently revealing index to her quixotic and exuberant personality.
Reviews:
Linda Sexton, Anne Sexton's elder daughter and literary executor, adds a new introduction to this collection of the poet's letters first published in 1977. PW called the original edition, "An arresting, disturbing portrait of a gifted, unstable, death-obsessed writer who never took that giant step from childhood to maturity." Photos.
