"Except there was always the other path. Verse, unlike prose, could be instantly transformative. In summer 1962, Plath broadcast a fine essay on writing poetry and how it differs from writing fiction: ‘How shall I describe it? – a door opens, a door shuts. In between you have had a glimpse: a garden, a person, a rainstorm, a dragonfly, a heart, a city. I think of those round glass Victorian paperweights … You turn it upside down, then back. It snows. Everything is changed in a minute.’"
