Sylvia Plath – Winter Trees – First UK Edition 1971
£185.00
A first edition, first printing published by Faber in 1971. A near fine book without inscriptions. No spotting or foxing. In a like neatly clipped wrapper. A lovely copy.
“Winter Trees” by Sylvia Plath is a posthumous poetry collection that offers a compelling insight into the poet’s thematic concerns and distinctive poetic style. Plath’s exploration of nature in the context of winter serves as a metaphor for her personal struggles and inner turmoil. In these poems, winter symbolises emotional coldness, isolation, and the idea of death and rebirth, often reflecting her own psychological complexities and challenges with mental health.
