Abstract

This paper focuses on a piece of Plath’s poetry – The Mad Girl’s Love Song – and examines how she depicts her constant shift between a state of conscious and a state of madness. As one of the most significant female authors in American literature, Sylvia Plath has continued to fascinate readers and scholars with her unique style of writing. Many has pondered on how Plath connects madness with her literary works.
