London: Faber and Faber, 1971. First edition. Fine. Slim octavo. Dark blue cloth, gilt spine. 64 pp. A truly fine copy in a dust jacket printed in black and deep blue on white with a small closed nick at the top edge and a stray mark to the lower panel, else near fine.
First UK edition. "In this volume Ted Hughes has collected a number of poems written by Sylvia Plath in the transitional period between The Colossus (1960) and Ariel (1965)" -- from the publisher's note. An absolutely stunning collection.

Sinopsis
"A representative selection of verse by the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer who left in the wake of her personal tragedy a legacy of poems that combine terrifying intensity and dazzling artistry. With their brutally frank self-exposure and emotional immediacy, Plath's poems... have had an enduring influence on contemporary poetry."
