Nov 18, 2008 - Unfortunately we might not have any film of Sylvia, but we do have the next best thing...rare footage of Sylvia and Ted's daughter Frieda. I've just posted a video of her accepting an award on behalf of Ted Hughes. The physical likeness and the similarity in the voice are remarkable...

Nov 18, 2008 - Second time in a week YouTube has shown me something I had hardly expected to see. Sexton is among my most beloved poets, and it was fascinating to see her read her own work. She has such an expressive face, and those eyes are both chilling and heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing this.

Nov 18, 2008 - i discovered her this afternoon. i opened a pg and the poem hit me like a bullet. she was saying all that i was feeling in 13 stanzes. 3 months of an emotional rolercoster in one poem. AMAZING!

Nov 18, 2008 - i just love her words so dark , an open woundyet full of poetic beauty

PlaidBoy Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - I love Sexton. Was Lara Flynn Boyle's character in Happiness a parody of her? I just thought of that when I saw that picture of her as a model.

Nov 18, 2008 - This is so good. You tube is increible, lo que viene a traer. Vi a Kerouac, a Paramahasa Yogananda, a Alan Watts, escuche a PLath. You tube hizo que aquellos escritos que lei por año tuviran cara y voz. Gracias queda corto pero la vida es corta y vale la pena. A you tube y a mishima 1970, grazie.

Nickfromglasgow Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Thanks for posting this; a rare opportunity to view her speaking. Much appreciated

Nov 18, 2008 - The Mold that gave us Bob Dylan, Lenny Bruce, Hendrix, Bergman, Rimbaud, Morrison (Jim), and all the other monumentals who've given me my courage to create myself. PBS has been bogarting this one forever! Danke!!!!
