    Brava to her for creating such a rich life in spite of sad circumstances. Her home, her garden, her art and her feathered friends are all beautiful.

    I feel for her, I understand the pain she has gone through. I'm glad I started over, and got animals and a stress free life. Living in the Rockies is like living in Heaven to me. No one living anywhere close, and the views are Heavenly. Best wishes to her...

    She is a very talented woman. Amazing artist. The motorcycle racing was totally unexpected. I would imagine it is the thrill of riding, and the thrill of racing that is the draw. Kudos to her for the work of rescuing birds. This is a great story.

    I’m now reading your mother’s journals and before that, an excellent biography on her. Even though I never knew your mom, I have such strong feelings in my heart for her. I’m so sorry about your brother. You are strong and Sylvia would be SO proud of you. All the best, dear Frieda.

    Frieda Hughes is such a completely independent, and positive, soul. I get very good vibes every time I see/read anything about her.

    Sylvia Plath poetry is not for everyone to read. It's not easy. But the Bell Jar was an interesting read.🤔 Compliments to the daughter for her painting activities.

      I am wondering that too. I guess we will have to read the book to find out. 😊

      The answer is in the book! George - A Magpie Memoir. All I'll say is that I wouldn't have written it if he didn't have a happy ending.

    Currently was studying Plath's poetry and found her suicide to be selfish on part of her children and I eventually ended up her and I must say-She is better than her mother.
