The Bell Jar
Описание и характеристики
When Esther Greenwood wins an internship on a New York fashion magazine in 1953, she is elated, believing she will finally realise her dream to become a writer. But in between the cocktail parties and piles of manuscripts, Esthers life begins to slide out of control. She finds herself spiralling into depression and eventually a suicide attempt, as she grapples with difficult relationships and a society which refuses to take womens aspirations seriously.
The Bell Jar, Sylvia Plaths only novel, was originally published in 1963 under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas. The novel is partially based on Plaths own life and descent into mental illness, and has become a modern classic. The Bell Jar has been celebrated for its darkly funny and razor sharp portrait of 1950s society and has sold millions of copies worldwide.

мне было очень сложно влиться в книгу, язык казался сухим, главная героиня раздражала. она хотела казаться остроумной, но выходила грубой и заносчивой. тут и расизм, и фэтшейминг. удовольствия чтение этой книги мне точно не принесло.
