Crossing the Water and Winter Trees contain the poems written during the exceptionally creative period of the last years of Sylvia Plath''s life. Published posthumously in 1971, they add a startling counterpoint to Ariel, the volume that made her reputation. Readers will recognise some of her most celebrated poems - ''Childless Woman'', ''Mirror'', ''Insomniac'' - while discovering those still overlooked, including her radio play Three Women.

Alan Brownjohn, New Statesman Less
