Grisafi's fresh take on Plathian themes like politics, mental health, and sexual violence prove time and time again that Sylvia Plath is not only relevant, but necessary." -ELIZABETH WINDER, author of Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 In Breaking Down Plath, writer and educator Dr. Patricia Grisafi delivers a refreshing glimpse into the life and work of an iconic American poet.

Perfect for middle and high school students studying Plath's work, Breaking Down Plath is also an indispensable resource for educators, parents, and anyone interested in the work and life of Sylvia Plath.
