The Bell Jar
Sylvia Plath· 1963
What it feels like when your own mind starts closing in around you.
Esther Greenwood is a smart young woman with a dream internship in New York. From the outside, her life looks perfect. From the inside, she's falling apart. The bell jar is her image for what depression feels like — sealed in, watching the world through glass.
Aslında ne
The Bell Jar is a quiet, sharp, sometimes funny book about a young woman trying to figure out who she is while her mind starts to fail her. It's honest about depression in a way very few books were when it was written.
“What it feels like when your own mind starts closing in around you.”
