8. Sylvia Plath: The Oven Suicides, Part 1 from Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups

Listen to Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups episodes free, on demand. Some people best know Sylvia Plath for her unusual mode of suicide; others remember her for as one of the first authors to write openly about her own mental illness. But there's even more to her than that: the early loss of her father, the obsessive desire to be an over-achiever, that time she made national news as a missing person, the desire to find a 'perfect' husband, and the wild betrayal she felt when that perfect husband had an affair. But what exactly caused the author of THE BELL JAR to kill herself at age 30? This is the first episode in the podcast's second season, "Stranger than Fiction."

Have you ever heard of the podcast ‘Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups’ @classafelons_bfilms_ccups by Paris Brown ?

I highly recommend to listen to the first episode of the second season “Stranger than Fiction” called “Sylvia Plath: The Oven Suicides, Part 1” (part 2 deals with Assia Wevill and I also recommend that one!), especially today, one day before the anniversary of Sylvia Plath’s death on 11 February 1963.

This is a very informative, detailed and well-researched podcast that used actual books (e.g. A Lover of Unreason: The Life and Tragic Death of Assia Wevill (2006) by Yehuda Koren and Eilat Negev, The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes (1994) by Janet Malcolm, Her Husband: Hughes and Plath—A Marriage (2003) by Diane Middlebrook, Sylvia Plath: A Biography (1987) by Linda Wagner-Martin or Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 (2013) by Elizabeth Winder), essays (e.g. from The Plath Profiles) and newspaper/magazine articles (e.g. from The Boston Daily Globe, The New York Times or Vanity Fair) as its sources.

I couldn’t find any wrong information in it! ;)

9. Assia Wevill: The Oven Suicides, Part 2 from Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups

Listen to Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups episodes free, on demand. In 1969, Assia Wevill--hailed as a great beauty and advertising talent--bizarrely committed suicide in the same manner as her paramour's wife six years earlier. To add to the tragedy, she killed her 4-year-old daughter, Shura. This is the story of a woman tormented by the dead poet Sylvia Plath, the refusal of Sylvia's husband Ted to commit to her even after he fathered her child, and the memory of her narrow escape from Hitler and the Holocaust. This is the second episode in the podcast's second season, "Stranger than Fiction." Click on our website link below for source information.

Do you remember when I recommended the podcast ‘Class A Felons, B-Films, C-Cups’ @classafelons_bfilms_ccups by Paris Brown back in February?

Today, I highly recommend to listen to the second episode of the second season “Stranger than Fiction” called “Assia Wevill: The Oven Suicides, Part 2” (part 1 deals with Sylvia Plath and you should obviously also listen to that one!), especially today, on what would have been Assia Wevill’s 93rd birthday.

This is a very informative, detailed and well-researched podcast that used actual books (e.g. A Lover of Unreason: The Life and Tragic Death of Assia Wevill (2006) by Yehuda Koren and Eilat Negev, The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes (1994) by Janet Malcolm, Her Husband: Hughes and Plath—A Marriage (2003) by Diane Middlebrook, Sylvia Plath: A Biography (1987) by Linda Wagner-Martin or Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953 (2013) by Elizabeth Winder), essays (e.g. from The Plath Profiles) and newspaper/magazine articles (e.g. from The Boston Daily Globe, The New York Times or Vanity Fair) as its sources.

I Also Want to Pay for Him to Receive a Subscription to the Epoch Times

Good morning,

I read the piece on Paris Brown from Chicago.

His story moved me and I have hope that this young man will succeed with his positive attitude and heart of forgiveness. I especially love that he said anything he can learn in college he can learn in the real world.

I didn’t hear the chip on his shoulder that one would expect given his circumstances.

I would like to donate to a…

Paris Brown, the young girl at the centre of a row about tweeting, will now longer be prosecuted. She was accused of making racist and offensive comments on her twitter, and this culminated in a public outcry when the comments became publicised

This in itself is not really an issue - I'd imagine there are plenty of twitter feeds that also have racist or homophobic comments on them, largely made in jest at best or frustration at other, unrelated phenomena. She was however targeted as she had earned the position of Youth Police Commissioner for Kent, and was subsequently made the target of public scrutiny

The investigation and subsequent public witch-hunt really managed to annoy me - I thoroughly believe that whilst her comments were ill-judged and poorly timed that she was undeserving of such a public outcry - after all, she managed to be good enough and ambitious enough to be asked to become a representative for youths across Britain, no mean feat considering the fact that earned that position at the tender age of 16

I say this because the British public's attitude regarding their own children is incredibly distasteful and atavistic. Here is a nation that believes that increasing pass rates is a sign that their children are getting stupider, rather then as a triumph of their ability. This is a nation that is content to lock up their own children in increasing amounts rather then become better parents.

The point of being young I feel, is that you should be able to get your stupidity and misjudgement out of your system. Adolescence is a scary, unforgiving and confusing phenomena, yet Britain is keen to unconsciously stamp it out.

Paris Brown was unlucky. She became a public figure at a time when her and her ilk are prone to poor judgement. But a witch-hunt against someone so young is traumatising. I cannot fathom why Britons would do this kind of thing to one of their own

A new take on digital literacy

Last weekend the FT's Robert Shrimsley wrote about Paris Brown and the Kent police force's failed attempt at hiring a teenage liaison officer. It turns out she was a bit too representative of her age group. 

In the article he also concluded that there was 'a second lesson from this fiasco, and it concerns social media. Most of us grew up in an era when our youthful stupidities could not be found online and our inane observations on life were restricted to a couple of mates…. Part of teenage life is learning what is and is not appropriate.’

We have been talking about digital literacy at work and what we can do to help disadvantaged groups gain access to coding camps. But before coding, there is surely a call for a more basic digital literacy.

For some this might mean the more fundamental knowledge and access to equipment needed to make coding relevant and applicable, but there may also be a call for building awareness around reputation, employability and what certain actions might mean to a future employer who can be particularly fussy in a tough economic climate.

[gareth-price]

I think we’re right to warn teenagers that they need to examine what they’re sharing publicly online but I wonder whether the reaction would be as strong if Paris had said the same thing on Facebook. While some of her comments are clearly indefensible, is part of the overreaction to what she said based on a fundamental misunderstanding of how a different demographic uses Twitter? Just because what she said was public at the time, is dragging those tweets up years later any less an invasion of her privacy than if the newspaper had created a fake account to befriend her on Facebook to search her old status updates?
