A mesmerizing picture book about the iconic poet Sylvia Plath and her final writings
Love, bees don’t live long.But honey lives forever. Words, too. Sylvia Plath is remembered for her stirring poetry and the tragic legacy her work left behind. But it is lesser known that she was a beekeeper and completed her last book of poems while tending to her bees and harvesting honey. Author and beekeeper Amy Novesky shines a new light on the life and work of Plath through the lens of her last seasons with her beloved bees–and how during their short and busy lives, they filled her with inspiration and hope–while the evocative paintings by Stonewall Book Award winner Jessica Love reveal the tenderness and wonder of one of America’s most iconic poets.
