### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Magical
  

*by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2021*

Before I go on my endless praise for Sylvia Plath and her transcendent poetic prowess, I think this collection best captures the template of the framework of the human mind.She always categorizes either black or white to be the complexions of the mind, and I like how she resonates her language to describe the title poem “Crossing the Water” and “Insomnia” and “In Plaster” to a certain extent.These poems wrestle the black and white and blend to the grey as we know her most famous poems that we know today (Lady Lazarus, Daddy).If you don’t have Ariel as the pinnacle in your mind, you won’t ever truly enjoy this work and others as well—it’s best to take this collection as is and enjoy its identity, which is nothing but magical.

    Truly transitional poems
  

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2000*

This is probably my favorite collection of Plath poetry, although some of my favorite poems aren't in here (Morning Song is my very favorite). From the time I looked at the cover (dark waves at night, what could be better  for the writer who crossed the Atlantic to die by her own hand?) to the  last poem in the book, I felt that I was seeing Plath's vision at its most  clearly expressed. You can feel the dark weight of her impending collapse,  but her head is still above water, so to speak. I also think that it's the  book with the least amount of self-pity; she's strongest as a poet and as a  person in this collection. This is not to discount Ariel, which contain  some of her best poems, but they're like flashes of lightning in a grey sky  of self-pity. In Crossing the Water, on the other hand, we get to see the  loneliness of the long distance swimmer, sure and strong, who knows she's  heading into danger.
