Also I don’t know anyone whose class could actually finish the curriculum by the final exams, so sampling texts around themes sounds more efficient

We did a “murder stories” theme for advanced level literature in 12th grade and read 19th c. Hungarian novel, Agatha Christie, a Poe short story

In high school, literature should be taught around themes not in chronological order from classics to contemp.

It is a photo of Sylvia Plath that I admired for years, and it has never been used as a cover for a Plath book.
She looks beautiful, happy, and magical and is surrounded by books.

In 2019, I saw The Bell Jar on stage. For my PhD viva, my mum got in contact with the actress playing Esther who sent me a congratulatory message. Today, my mum works at that theatre and does the hair and makeup in the stage adaptation of the novel. theplathwitchcraft.wordpress.com/2020/06/21/t...
