This is just to say that BookPage has a page up on Loving Sylvia Plath: A Reclamation in which they refer to Ted Hughes as Sylvia Plath’s abuser. Just, out there. Cut and dry. No, if you’ll pardon the swear, fucking around.
This might not seem like that big of a deal. But truly— this is not a radical feminist outlet. This is BookPage. A trade journal. And they just said it, clear as day. This feels huge to me, and also very quiet, like a storm inside me just finally blew out. And I wanted to share that with all of you.
That’s HUGE! And you’re a part of the sea change. Well done. 🩷
Thank you for doing all this work to make this happen. It feels like a really big, important moment. ❤️
