Sylvia Plath chose June 16th for her wedding date in honor of James Joyce's Novel 'Ulysses'
It was at a party in Cambridge that Plath met her eventual husband, poet Ted Hughes. On June 16th, 1956, Plath married Hughes, paying homage to the day on which James Joyce's Ulysses takes place. Unfortunately, the writers' marriage was tumultuous and painful and recently discovered letters reveal that Hughes abused Plath.
