Books by Gail Crowther

A vividly rendered and empathetic exploration of how two of the greatest poets of the 20th century-Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton-became bitter rivals and, eventually, friends.

An innovative and unique study exploring why many readers of Sylvia Plath become so attached to her as a cultural figure. By looking at first encounters with Plath's work through to pilgrimages that they make to places where Plath lived, this study explores why readers become so haunted by Plath.
