Don't own an iPad and so haven't had a leer (or possibly an eye-roll) at this:

The Waste Land for iPad

A glance at the right column of that page shows F&F desperately trying to create an electronic theme park out of their literary back-catalog.

Have a look at the rather tasteless cover for the 50th Anniversary Edition of Plath's novel about slipping into mental illness and attempting suicide (after all, "one year in every ten [she] manage[d] it"). The cover makes it look as though Plath just needed a makeover.
