Ted Hughes: The life of a poet / Hughes, Ted; Feinstein, Elaine 2001  Book
Hughes, Ted Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Weidenfeld & Nicholson, 2001.
Description xiv, 273pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract Feinstein explores an altogether more complex situation, which includes Plath's fragility throughout the marriage and Hughes' own confused intentions in the last few weeks of her life. In the process, Feinstein throws new light on his relationship with Assia Wevill, in some ways as vulnerable a figure as Plath herself. Hughes later had a child with Assia, who also killed herself along with their young daughter." "Drawing on extensive archive material and her own revealing analysis of Hughes' poems, as well as interviews with childhood friends, fellow undergraduates, poets and critics, Elaine Feinstein, who knew Hughes for nearly thirty years, gives a complex portrait of a man intrigued by the forms of magical experience which preoccupied Shakespeare and Yeats, who was nevertheless a down-to-earth Yorkshire man. His sharp eye for the natural world and his love of the countryside are widely known but equally important to his development were poets from eastern and central Europe such as Miroslav Holub, Vasco Popa and Janos Pilinszky. His whole vision of life was marked by the evidence of human brutality in the twentieth century.
