Plath, Sylvia
Synopsis "The Bell Jar: Sylvia Plath (Perennial Classics) (in English)"
A Special Hardcover Edition to Commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Publication of Sylvia Plath's Remarkable Novel"It is this perfectly wrought prose and the freshness of Plath's voice in The Bell Jar that make this book enduring in its appeal." -- USA TodayThe shocking, realistic, and intensely emotional novel about a woman battling mental illness and societal pressures written by iconic American writer Sylvia Plath.Esther Greenwood is brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under--maybe for the last time. In her acclaimed and enduring masterwork, Sylvia Plath brilliantly draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that her neurosis becomes palpably real, even rational--as accessible an experience as going to the movies. A deep penetration into the darkest and most harrowing corners of the human psyche, The Bell Jar is an extraordinary accomplishment and a haunting American classic.
Sylvia Plath (Boston, 27 de octubre de 1932-Londres, 11 de febrero de 1963) fue una escritora y poeta estadounidense. Considerada una de las cultivadoras del género de la poesía confesional, sus obras más conocidas son sus poemarios El coloso y Ariel y su novela semiautobiográfica La campana de cristal, publicada bajo el seudónimo de «Victoria Lucas» cuatro meses antes de su suicidio. Estuvo casada con el poeta Ted Hughes, quien tras su muerte se encargó de la edición de su poesía completa. En 1982 ganó un Premio Pulitzer póstumo por sus Poemas completos. Nacida en Boston, Massachusetts, Plath estudió en la Smith College de Massachusetts y, tras recibir una Beca Fullbright, en la Newnham College de Cambridge.
