I started yelling about his poems.". The attraction was instant and mutual and what followed - a whirlwind romance, marriage, honeymoon in Spain, return to England shortly to be followed by America - made for an emotional and creative maelstrom that was to launch the careers of both Hughes and Plath, who would, for a brief period, shine so brightly as the golden couple of modern poetry.
