I got The Birthday Letters from the library, but I haven't read any of it, yet. Too busy re-reading some Tolkien. I've been very curious about Hughes. A lot of people villified him, blamed him for Plath's suicide, but that doesn't seem fair to me. She had tried to kill herself before, long before she met him. The woman was a ticking timebomb. She must have been very hard to live with. She probably drove him away.
