badger11 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I'm not a fan of her content, but I am a fan of her use of language. This link is likely to disappear, but worth a watch in understanding her context when she speaks for herself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zexu2SMUIdU...feature=related badge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksandra Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Actually, I had another imagery in my head about Plath. I don't know what is it, but I expected different voice. Not that I don't like what I heard, but who knows why I imagined differently. Wonderful post, badge.

Tinker Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Darn, I can't access this link from my office computer... the system firewalls block many internet sites so I will have to listen tonight on my home computer.. I think of Plath as whiney, so I am dying to hear her voice "so full of life." ~~Tink Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinker Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Thanks for these Badge, I would never have thought to listen to Plath, she has never been a favorite of mine. But I have to admit, after listening to the link, I went on to listen to more. I like her poems much better hearing her read them. Funny, she doesn't sound like an American to me. Although I believe she was from the East and those Easterners sound a bit more high falutin.... Frost was not a surprise, I had heard him before. He drones, kind of boring, but his words impact me anyway. He is a favorite of mine but I prefer to read his work not listen to him. ~~Tink Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger11 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 It was the tempo of his reading that surprised me. It sounded hurried. badge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
