Published by Faber & Faber, 2009, softcover, 234 pages, condition: as new.
When Esther Greenwood wins an internship with a New York fashion magazine in 1953, she is elated, believing she will finally realize her dream of becoming a writer. Instead, she finds herself spiraling into a mental breakdown, as she grapples with issues of identity and societal norms.

In this acclaimed and enduring masterwork, Sylvia Plath draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that her insanity becomes palpably real, even rationalas 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.

Plath was a poet but is known to many for this largely autobiographical novel. The Bell Jar tells the story of a gifted young woman's mental breakdown beginning during a summer internship as a junior editor at a magazine in New York City in the early 1950s. The real Plath committed suicide in 1963 and left behind this scathingly sad, honest and perfectly-written book, which remains one of the best-told tales of a woman's descent into insanity.
