| Abstract: | The present article aims to highlight one of the major characteristics of confessional poetry – that of exposure of intimate life and feelings through poetry. The interest in Sylvia Plath’s poems is closely linked to that of her personal life, her marriage to Ted Hughes being one of them. Plath’s poems are confessional in style, expressing the lack of interest in life and the sole desire to die. I analyse two of the poems that are an extraordinary example of expressing the most intimate thoughts through poetry, in my paper. |
