In 1956 Sylvia Plath wrote to her mother, Aurelia Plath: 'I feel
I'm developing a kind of primitive style of my own which I am very
fond of. Wait til you see. The Cambridge sketch was nothing
compared to these.' Sylvia Plath cited art as her deepest source of
inspiration but, while her poetry is celebrated around the world,
her drawings are little known. This volume brings together drawings
from 1955 to 1957, the period she spent on a Fulbright scholarship
from the US at Newnham College, Cambridge. During this time she
married Ted Hughes and travelled with him to Paris and Spain. First
published as a catalogue for an exhibition at the Mayor Gallery,
the tiny drawings in pen and ink are exquisitely observed. They
include Parisian rooftops, trees and churches.
