And speaking of Sylvia Plath...

October 4, 2013

... The Library Bandit wins again!

On December 1, 2012, I posted this... announcing that I was starting The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath.  Chances are, I borrowed it from the library at least a few days prior to this post.

On March 6, 2013, I fi...

Mother of the year!

September 13, 2013

I was just reading Lorelai The Bell Jar as I tried to get her to fall asleep.  Husband said "if we find her with her head in the oven, you know who to blame!"

Break out the Xanax... again

September 12, 2013

I still have the library's copy of The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath sitting in my car behind the passenger's seat from when we had to read it for the challenge.  Almost every day, Husband asks me if I returned it to the library yet... and every day he gets a she...

I have no pride.

February 19, 2013

So, as you all know, I've been trudging through The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath for some time now (I don't even want to go back and look at what date the intro for this book was posted... I'm just going to be embarrassed).  It's not that I dislike Sylvia Plath....

January 26, 2013

The Frisky did an article continuing the discussion of the absolute absurdity of the cover design of the 50th anniversary edition of The Bell Jar.

Sylvia ain't your pretty girl!

January 24, 2013

This article really chaps my ass. Not the article itself... Jennifer Wright of The Gloss is a goddess and hits the nail on the head (as always).  The topic itself has riled me up to unimaginable levels.

Seriously... how can you read The Bell Jar (or anything by Sylvia...

I better renew my Lithium prescription

January 17, 2013

Dearest Sylvia,

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of The Bell Jar, I hereby re-commit to finishing your unabridged journals.  I know I've been slacking lately.  But you have to understand, it's hard enough plowing through the innermost thoughts of anyone.  Neverm...

Lorelei by Sylvia Plath

January 14, 2013

I recently discovered that Sylvia Plath wrote a poem called Lorelei.  How is that for a Black, White & Read connection!?

A little backstory before you read the poem on the origin of the name Lorelei/Lorelai.  The Lorelei is actually a large rock that sits on the east...
