Ghosts of a Wound

Birthday LettersBirthday Letters by Ted Hughes

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I have the 1999 paperback edition from Faber of this book, in a rather unattractive blue with text in gray and red. Whatever Plath defenders may say (or stab with), this is a moving and painful collection that is worth reading over and over. Here Hughes dresses a wound that refuses to heal.
