A Peek Into Fever 103

Hello wonderful students! Here is a link to a university student's commentary about Sylvia Plath's poem "Fever 103". I thought you might find it useful and she has some interesting ideas.

I am now thoroughly confused after reading that commentary. I thought her husband was the one cheating on her, but this person takes a completely different approach saying that she is the one committing adulterous acts. I don't get how orchid has a sexual connotation, I don't get the whole thing about fat Cerberus, I don't get why she is calling herself God, I don't get anything.
