A woman's life, erupting with brilliance and promise, is fissured
by betrayal and the pressures of duty. What had once seemed a
pastoral family idyll has become a trap, and she struggles between
being the wife and mother she is bound to be and wanting to do and
be so much more. The woman in question is Sylvia Plath in the final
year of her life. As Plath's marriage to Ted Hughes unravels
through the heady days of their first summer in Devon together,
Sylvia turns increasingly to writing to express her pain and loss,
yet also her resilience and power. She has decided to die, but the
art she creates in her final weeks will set her name, and the
world, ablaze.
