Edited on 26 September. Anita Helle's The Unraveling Archive: essays on Sylvia Plat will not be on sale at the symposium. Please purchase copies in advance via your local independent bookshop, a larger chain store, or Amazon.com. Sorry for any confusion. - Peter
The Sylvia Plath 75th Year Symposium is just one month away! There will be a book signing, open to the public on Sunday 28 October, 2007. This event will take place at Rhodes, from 1300-1400. Below is a bibliography of books by authors participating in the symposium. I must stress that it is incomplete. For example, writers like A. Alvarez and Linda Wagner-Martin have published, between then, a "bookshelf full of books" to quote Plath.
I do not know at this point which books will be for sale during the symposium, the list below is just a sample of what might be there, or what people may wish to bring if they own copies already. Kathleen Connors and Sally Bayley's Eye Rhymes: Sylvia Plath's art of the visual is expected to be on sale on 25 October. I do apologize if there are authors presenting that are not listed here. Please email me or leave a comment if this is the case and I'll add you to the list.
