Mary Ellen Chase,
Silver nimbus lit, egg eyes hooded,
The moon-owl who found you
Even in England, and plucked you out of my nest
And carried you back to college,
Dragging you all the way, your toes trailing
In the Atlantic.
(excerpt from a #poem called "Night-Ride on Ariel" written by Ted Hughes)
Trivia: Mary Ellen Chase was a teacher at a university #SylviaPlath attended; they were very close.
@AprilRapunzel Welcome! I read The Bell Jar for the first time last year and was blown away by #sylviaplath 's depth.
I'm also a Harry Potter fan but I was sorted into #ravenclaw
So I heard this is the new safe haven for all the unicorns, capybaras and harry potter fans.
I'm a #film studies student.
I am #queer
I love #sylviaplath
I drink a lot of #water
I belong in #gryffindor (in case you were wondering)
I am a #feminist
And I have no idea what I'm doing here 😀
