Synopsis "The Bell jar (in English)"

A realistic and emotional novel about a woman battling mental illness and societal pressures written by the iconic American writer Sylvia Plath."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 Today The Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: young, brilliant, beautiful, and enormously talented, but slowly going under--maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's neurosis becomes completely understandable and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such thorough exploration of the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche - and the profound collective loneliness that modern society has yet to find a solution for - is an extraordinary accomplishment, and has made The Bell Jar a haunting American classic.This P.S. edition features extra insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.

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.
