Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar (Bloom's Guides)

Product Description
In this classic coming-of-age novel set in post-World War II America, Esther Greenwood emerges as a double for author Sylvia Plath. A summer internship at a fashion magazine in New York City reveals only the lack of beauty in the young woman's inner life, as Esther succumbs to a pervasive depression that she likens to being trapped beneath the title object, a bell jar, struggling for her next breath. Noted literary scholar Harold Bloom introduces this new title in the "Bloom's Guides" series, which also features an annotated bibliography and a listing of other works by the author.
