About this product

Product Information

Working in New York one hot summer, Esther Greenwood is on the brink of her future. Yet she is also on the edge of a darkness that makes her world both increasingly unreal and more sharply felt. Plath describes Esther's experience with a searing clarity: the wide-eyed country girls; her sharp-as-nails friend Doreen and her crazed men-friends; hot dinner dances and nights in New York. But it is a vision coloured by breakdown, making this one of the most vivid, troubled novels about the struggle to grow up.

  • Challenging read

    My Grandson wanted to find someone to discuss this book with so I bought a copy. The condition is good and I'm looking forward to reading it and debating with him about it. At the moment I've just started what I suspect will be a challenging read!
