Synopsis
A realistic and emotional look at a woman who falls into the grips of insanity written by the iconic American writer Sylvia PlathâIt is this perfectly wrought prose and the freshness of Plathâs voice in The Bell Jar that make this book enduring in its appeal.â â USA TodayThe Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going underâmaybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Estherâs breakdown with such intensity that Estherâs neuroses become completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is an extraordinary accomplishment and has made The Bell Jar a haunting American classic.
