Blackberrying What is the author's style in Blackberrying by Sylvia Plath? Asked by bookragstutor on 20 Aug 02:06 Last updated by Cat on 15 Oct 01:38
"Blackberrying" has no formal structure. It is a three-stanza poem, written in free verse. Each stanza has 9 lines of varying length, some quite long. These long lines give the poem a greater prose-like feel than some of Plath's other poems.
