I first became interested in this book when I was in a Barnes and Noble. I read the story 'Johnny Panic' and my interest was piqued. I didn't know that Ms. Plath wrote so many short stories and prose. Her personality definitely rings through in them.
I see how conflicted Ms. Plath was. I see how she felt about her father. She saw the best of him and the worst of him toward the end of his life. Her brilliance rings through in the use of her words and description of scenes. Johnny Panic is not a quick read just as Ms. Plath was not easy to comprehend. She is a compelling character worth reading and studying about.
