Ariel is a posthumous poetry collection by Sylvia Plath, published in 1965. Written during the final months of her life, the collection captures intense emotional states shaped by her struggles with identity, mental illness, and societal expectations of women. The title refers to both a spirit from The Tempest and the horse she rode, symbolizing freedom and transformation. The poems are vivid, confessional, and often unsettling. Plath uses powerful imagery, such as in “Lady Lazarus” and “Daddy,” to explore themes of death, rebirth, trauma, and female oppression. Nature, violence, and the body appear throughout, reflecting her internal turmoil and search for liberation. Her tone shifts between despair, irony, and defiance. Ariel redefined modern poetry with its raw honesty and lyrical power. It remains a groundbreaking work in feminist and confessional literature, offering insight into Plath’s psyche and broader human experiences of pain, power, and identity.

This richly illustrated volume brings together nine of Langston Hughes’s most impactful works, showcasing his mastery across poetry, prose, and drama. A defining voice of the Harlem Renaissance, Hughes explored the joys, struggles, and everyday experiences of Black Americans with emotional depth and cultural resonance. The poetry collections in this edition—The Weary Blues, Fine Clothes to the Jew, The Negro Mother, and Dear Lovely Death—blend jazz rhythms, vernacular speech, and sharp social insight. These verses remain powerful reflections of dignity, hope, and resistance. Hughes’s only novel, Not Without Laughter, and his major plays—including Mulatto, Mule Bone (co-written with Zora Neale Hurston), and Black Nativity—offer vivid portraits of community, identity, and injustice.
