Plath wrote in her journals of her wish to get better at reading tarot – but it played an important part in her art, too.
The Tarot de Marseille deck was a 24th birthday gift from Hughes. The symbol that spread around the world The rings sold for a respectable $38,000 (£28,000) – but this was mere pocket change compared to the most sought after item in the lot: Plath's personal tarot deck.
It included intimate love letters, recipe cards, a rolling pin, family photo albums and her and Ted Hughes's gold wedding bands. Earlier this summer, a collection of Sylvia Plath's personal items went up for sale at Sotheby's.
