About the book

Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar follows Esther Greenwood, a talented young woman whose apparent success conceals a growing sense of isolation and despair. Set partly in 1950s New York, the novel traces Esther's struggle with expectations surrounding career, relationships and identity. Plath's sharp prose creates a powerful portrait of mental illness, social pressure and the search for autonomy.
