An in-depth reading of Ted Hughes's work, focusing on Birthday Letters, which Hughes described as "a gathering of the occasions on which I tried to open a direct, private, inner contact with my first wife . . . thinking mainly to evoke her presence to myself, and to feel her there listening." We will first read the biography of Hughes by Elaine Feinstein and then examine his poems. We will also refer to Sylvia Plath's poetry and prose.
