## Resource

Sylvia Plath’s second collection Ariel (Faber) was published in 1965, two years after the poet’s death, in a version somewhat reconfigured from her draft copy by Ted Hughes. Plath’s original arrangement was restored in 2004 in an edition edited by her daughter Frieda Hughes. To mark Ariel’s 60th birthday and the new Faber edition, poets Victoria Adukwei Bulley and Richard Scott read from Plath’s work and from their own, and examined the abiding legacy of one of the 20th century’s most influential literary documents. Fellow poet and essayist Lavinia Greenlaw was in the chair. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
