Full description | Reviews | Bibliographic data

'Assia was my true wife, and the best friend I ever had', wrote Ted Hughes, after his lover surrendered her life and that of their young daughter in 1969, six years after Sylvia Plath had suffered a similar fate. Diva, she-devil, enchantress, muse, Lillith, Jezebel - Assia inspired many epithets during her life. The tragic story of Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes has always been related from one of two points of view: hers or his. Missing for over four decades had been a third: that of Hughes' mistress. This first biography of Assia Wevill views afresh the Plath-Hughes relationship and at the same time, recounts the journey that shaped her life. Wevill's is a complex story, formed as it is by the pull of often contrary forces.The incredible story of Ted Hughes's deeply troubled lover received glowing reviews. This book provides a fascinating new perspective on Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath's relationship. It is a biography of great importance which will reshape Hughes & Plath's history. It is now out in paperback!
