Sylvia Plath is honoured by Google on the Anniversary of her Birth. October 27, 1932.

A celebrated American poet and novelist, her most famous book is The Bell Jar. Sylvia Plath was a prolific writer in her short life accredited with creating confessional poetry. She was married to fellow poet Ted Hughes whom she had two children with. Plath suffered from clinical severe depression her entire life and tried to commit suicide multiple times. She was given electroshock “therapy” treatments multiple times but committed suicide at age 30 in England.

She was published during her life. In her groundbreaking novel The Bell Jar the protagonist, Esther feels like she is a prisoner of the expected narrow views of women in the 1950’s-1960’s domestic duties and fears for the loss of her inner self. Plath has become a feminist icon. She was survived by her daughter and son. Her son committed suicide and her daughter is also an artist and writer.

Does Plaths’ literary genius, she had an IQ of 160, and her lifelong depression and suicidal tendencies show up in her astrology chart?
