Similes And Metaphors Sylvia Plath
1,095 wordsSylvia Plath's poetry is well known for its deeply personal and emotional subject matter. Much of Plath's poetry is confessional and divulges the most intimate parts of her psyche whether through metaphor or openly, without creating a persona through which to project her feelings, and through the use of intense imagery. Plath's attempt to purge herself of the oppressive male figures in her life is one such deeply personal and fundamental theme in her poetry. In her poem, Daddy, which declares he...

Letter In Response To Hospital Negligence
1,242 wordsThis letter is in response to your communication dated November 21, 2001. The review you mentioned on your letter of the medical record of my mother, appears to be flawed and biased.
