"Nature itself has always been thought of as feminine and is often regarded as 'mother', making the exploitation of both tacitly acceptable."

I re-read The Bell Jar recently and couldn't stop seeing the planet inside the glass. New essay on what Sylvia Plath's metaphor has to do with ecological collapse, ecofeminism, and why the slow death of nature has always been a gendered story.

Would love to know what you think!
