This engaging summary presents an analysis of Ariel by Sylvia Plath, the author's final collection of poetry, which was first published in 1965, two years after her suicide. Many of the poems it contains were written in her final winter before her death, and the collection as a whole explores subjects including mental illness, depression, motherhood, illness and family relationships. This analysis features an outline of the overarching structure and key themes of the collections, as well as a closer reading of the poems "Ariel", "Daddy", "Lady Lazarus" and "Tulips". Sylvia Plath was an American novelist and poet. Her best-known works are the novel The Bell Jar (first published in 1963 under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas) and the poetry collection Ariel.
