About this product

Product Information

'This terse account of an American girl's breakdown and treatment gains its considerable power from an objectivity that is extraordinary considering the nature of the material. Sylvia Plath's attention had the quality of ruthlessness.imagery and rhetoric is disciplined by an unwinking intelligence.' Stephen Wall, ObserverThe Bell Jar is Sylvia Plath's only novel. Renowned for its intensity and outstandingly vivid prose, it broke existing boundaries between fiction and reality and helped to make Plath an enduring feminist icon. It was published under a pseudonym a few weeks before the author's suicide.

  • autobiography

    considered as one of the masterpieces of the 20th century, the book is based on the writer's own life experience. what is the literary value on that? but it does give a good insight on the deterioration of her mental health. Fascinating
