      She was born in 1932 in America then moved to England for college and again in later life.... so I guess her accent perfectly fits how you described her.

    Your poems are difficult to understand,
    So many allegories and symbolic representations .
    Nevertheless your poems have that elusive beauty which pulls the reader back repeatedly.
    I am curious to know your final days.
    A beautiful and sad life...
    Reality of World can be very painful for someone so sensitive.
    So much extraordinary talent lost forever.
    Perhaps you have been reincarnated in a better world.

    She was hardly wealthy as a girl, but her mother and dad were both educated and taught at Boston University. Her Smith education parlayed with Cambridge helped create her unique and sophisticated voice. Today almost all Americans sound mainly common. We are taught ( at least sub consciously) to loathe beauty, grace, style and sophistication. We are taught to dress down, look down, talk down ( to each other) act like we all come from the dregs. I experienced the last or tail end of the best times in the USA- when even the lower middle class was able and delighted to carry themselves with class and dignity. We might not have all had money then, but we all had class!!
    Oh well- Goodnight America!

      I agree that at one point certain classes of Americans knew how to behave in public! :) But Plath's reading/interview voice was awful. Had I know her only from this contact with her, I would have tuned out immediately.
