i found (on the net) recordings of sylvia plath reading her own poetry. had no idea her voice was like that, but anyways she reads them in this cool, rather mysterious way. i think it's interesting to listen to a poet read his/her own work cos sometimes when someone else reads it the tone and everything goes off. check it out!
