I especially agree with the overanalyzed part.

Did you ever read that a lot of people think that her actually dying during her suicide was an accident? Some people say she meant to be rescued, or saved from death. Funny..

Is that right? No, I haven't read much into Sylvia's life, death, or even poetry. I actually didn't know she was dead, even.. unless, was she the one who put her head in the stove, or was that some other woman?

Right, of course I knew she was dead, she's on all these 'famous dead poet' sites... it must have just been in the back of my mind somewhere. I think I do remember hearing some speculation about her suicide. Her poetry doesn't say to me, "I'm someone who thinks of killing myself", I just never could find any deep meaning in anything of hers.

She spent too much time at college.

I don't understand Sylvia Plath very much really, but I still like her stuff. It sounds cool.

Sylvia Plath always seems too sad to me. She's hard to read because she's so raw with her emotions. Her words can really affect me too much.
