Esther Greenwood has won a scholarship to work at a fashion magazine in the big city and feels that she can finally realize her dream of becoming a writer. But amidst cocktails, party nights, and piles of manuscripts, she discovers a society that repudiates women's aspirations, and her life begins to unravel. Esther—the author's alter ego—retreats into herself, as if trapped in a bell jar: continually breathing the same stale air with no possibility of escape.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003eMore than fifty years after its original publication, \u003ci\u003eThe Bell Jar\u003c\/i\u003e has become a modern classic, and Plath's words, with Eugenia Vázquez Nacarino's new translation, retain all their impact.
