The Bell Jar is a classic of American literature, with over two million copies sold in this country. This extraordinary work chronicles the crackup of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, successful -- but slowly going under, and maybe for the last time. Step by careful step, Sylvia Plath takes us with Esther through a painful month in New York as a contest-winning junior editor on a magazine, her increasingly strained relationships with her mother, and with the boy she dated in college, and eventually, devastatingly, into the madness itself. The reader is drawn into her breakdown with such intensity that her insanity becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies.
Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is rare in any novel. It points to the fact that The Bell Jar is a largely autobiographical work about Plath's own summer of 1953, when she was a guest editor at Mademoiselle and went through a breakdown. It reveals so much about the sources of Sylvia Plath's own tragedy that its publication was considered a landmark in literature.
"Esther Greenwood's account of her years in The Bell Jar is as clear and readable as it is witty and disturbing ... [This] is not a potboiler, nor a series of ungrateful caricatures; it is literature." -New York Times
This special 25th-anniversary edition includes a new foreword by Frances McCullough,who was the Harper & Row editor for the original edition, about the untold story of The Bell Jar's first American publication.

无论从作者还是主人公来说,刚开始都是一个很美好的形象,自立自强,动脑筋,聪明,快乐,活泼。 不知道为啥,会选择这样一个很悲剧的结局。人生的命运在于思考在于实践,不在于绝望,或者消极地面对。 看了这个故事很难过。也为作者不值得。~~~~~她如果活到80岁,可以创作更...
评分 评分我在想 不该用一个自杀而死的女士作为我的精神标榜。但我似乎无法抵抗她的文字。是这样,还没有大量的读过她的诗篇,就先看了这个自传类小说,从前总觉得自传要厚厚一本,要尽量的流水账,长版的简历一样啰啰嗦嗦的阐述一生。 她是一个让我目不转睛的女人。一年以前...

评分<The Bell Jar>在微博上有人提到这本书,正愁着找新书读就去书店给买了回来。 这是第一本让我读到绝望的书。本该是一本Plath的半自传式小说,血淋淋的让我读出了自己在里面的影子。网上对于Plath的自杀有各种揣测,更不乏极度缺少想象力的宣传式语句:“或许感情越是热烈,普...
