‘The Jailor’ (1962) by Sylvia Plath

S3E77 Emily Van Duyne is Ash's special guest for today's episode on Sylvia Plath's poem, The Jailor. A portrait of abuse, gas-lighting and 'inescapable femininity', the poem has recently been studied by Plath scholars including Emily for its use of anti-black racist language.  You can read some of Emily's work here: https://lithub.com/author/emily-van-duyne/ And follow her on Twitter:  @emilyvanduyne If you enjoy my work and would like to support Ear Read This, you can do so here: https://ko-fi.com/earreadthis Merchandise!  https://ear-read-this.creator-spring.com/   Title Music: 'Not Drunk' by The Joy Drops.
