Sylvia Plath siempre apunta al corazón. Tres mujeres es un emocionante poema a tres voces que tiene como tema central la maternidad. Cada voz representa una forma de vivirla: la mujer que centra su realización en ser madre, la que sufre por no poder serlo y la que lo es a su pesar.Sylvia concibió este poema, feminista y antibelicista, para ser leído en voz alta, y en 1962, un año antes de su muerte, lo leyó en la BBC. La experiencia supuso un cambio de dirección en su forma de afrontar la escritura. Desde entonces concebiría los poemas en voz alta, cambiando de forma definitiva su técnica poética.Es el poema más poderoso de su obra. Es exquisito y tiene la capacidad de llegar al corazón. [...] Plath ha puesto voz a nuestras más íntimas pesadillasJoyce Carol Oates
