I normally love Ted Hughes, and reading this book did make me feel closer to his person, but I don't read poetry to feel closer to the poet, but to feel closer to life itself, and this just didn't do that for me. It's definitely worth reading, especially if you're interested in the relationship between Hughes and Sylvia Plath, but it's no where near as powerful as much of his other work.
