>neruda
No

>>8254356
Currently reading Bell Jar, 60 pages in. Quite good, not great. I can tell she just wanted to be a poet.

>>8254378
Plath is a great

>>8254385
All i have read of her was awkward with the stupidest fucking rhymes. But she might be ok

>>8253597
surely you mean "comedian," not "poet"? David Cross can't write poetry for shit.

>>8254401
Are you talking about "Daddy," because it's a masterwork.

>>8253392
Rilke or Pound are the only correct answers.

>>8254385
No, she just died.

>>8254385
She is great, but the thread said best.

Plath was a whiny, self-entitled woman-child.
