By Peter K. Steinberg

Crouching Heron: The Life of Esther Greenwood is the definitive version of the writer's life. Written by archivist Greenough Lane, with the blessings of the Greenwood family, Crouching Heron builds upon the existing biographical treatments and corrects numerous errors, misunderstandings, and misinterpretations of one of the best known writers of the 20th Century. For the first time, readers have access to Buddy Willard's own memories on his tumultuous relationship, and there are ample quotes from diaries, letters, and Greenwood's work. This is, finally, the biography legions of her fans have been waiting for. Included in the volume as appendices are a transcription of the papers of Buddy Willard. These provide the back story to the tumultuous relationship between Greenwood and Willard. NB: This is a fictional biography of Esther Greenwood and fictional treatment of Buddy Willard, two of the main protagonists of Sylvia Plath's novel The Bell Jar.]
