Content warning: suicide and mental illness Sylvia Plath has come to mean a kind of shorthand, both culturally and in literary circles. You could say the same about Anne Sexton, although much less so, at least in my opinion. Plath has come to be a symbol of an angsty, depressed teen girl who takes herself

I laughed when Tivo came out with QuickMode™, the option to speed through shows at a faster playback.
