Red Comet by @heatherclarkauthor.bsky.social is brilliant. On the life and on the poems. Made me rethink almost everything about Sylvia Plath, whilst reaffirming her greatness. I’ll never forget reading ‘Cut’ at school … most poems died in that classroom. Not Plath’s. A wonderful biography.

Three months out! Thank you to everyone who has read, shared, and championed THE SCRAPBOOK. I know how rare it is for a debut novel to get this kind of attention, and I’m very grateful. I didn’t think the book would be so timely when I wrote it. I wish it wasn’t. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/b...
