Her death was the culmination of a brief, brilliant life lived in the shadow of clinical depression—a condition exacerbated by her tempestuous relationship with mercurial poet Ted Hughes. The ensuing years saw Plath rise to martyr status while Hughes was cast as the cause of her suicide, his infidelity at the heart of her demise.

L'été 1916 était arrivé comme un four. L'océan était le grand soulagement. Frais, vaste et—pensait-on—sûr. S'immerger dans ses eaux après des jours d'air étouffant de la ville, c'était se sentir renaître. Le sel brûlait la saleté de la fumée de charbon, la chaleur, le stress. Les femmes s'avançaient dans l'eau jusqu'aux genoux, riant nerveusement des vagues, tandis que les jeunes hommes nageaient hardiment au-delà des cordes, tranchant l'eau de larges mouvements. Mais sous la surface scintillante, la mer gardait ses propres secrets dangereux.

The wind never truly dies in the Urals. It prowls the valleys and ridgelines like a restless spirit, rattling bare birches, hissing across the frozen stone.
