Your Own, Sylvia: A Verse Portrait of Sylvia Plath

Your Own, Sylvia draws on Plathâ€™s writing and extensive nonfiction sources, chronicling Hemphillâ€™s interpretation of Plathâ€™s life from infancy to her death by suicide at age 30. The poems are arranged chronologically and each conveys an experience in Plathâ€™s life told via the voice and perspective of family members, friends, doctors, fellow writers, etc.â€”as interpreted by Hemphill. Each poem is accompanied by an addendum that further explains the factual circumstances of that poemâ€™s subject. The book also includes an Authorâ€™s Note, some photos, a section describing the source material for each poem, and suggestions for further reading.
