A vulnerable young girl wins a dream assignment on a big-time New York fashion magazine and finds herself plunged into a nightmare. An autobiographical account of Sylvia Plath's own mental breakdown and suicide attempt, The Bell Jar is more than a confessional novel, it is a comic but painful statement of what happens to a woman's aspirations in a society that refuses to take them seriously... a society that expects electroshock to cure the despair of a sensitive, questioning young artist whose search for identity becomes a terrifying descent toward madness.
Sylvia Plath was born in 1932 in Massachusetts. Her books include the poetry collections The Colossus, Crossing the Water, Winter Trees, Ariel, and The Collected Poems, which won the Pulitzer Prize. Plath is credited with being a pioneer of the 20th-century style of writing called confessional poetry. Her poem "Daddy" is one of the best-known examples of this genre.
In 1963, Plath's semi-autobiographic novel The Bell Jar was published under the pseudonym "Victoria Lucas"; it was reissued in 1966 under her own name. A complete and uncut facsimile edition of Ariel was published in 2004 with her original selection and arrangement of poems. She was married to the poet Ted Hughes, with whom she had a daughter, Frieda, and a son, Nicholas. She died in London in 1963.
1。 “我合上眼眸,世界倒地死去; 我抬起眼帘,一切重获新生。” 这真的不像人写的诗,所以我将它的全文找出来: Mad Girl's Love Song "I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again. (I think I made you up inside my head.) Th...
评分我醒了,是被同住的室友吵醒的。他问我吃饭吗,我被从深深的睡意里拉出,勉强挤出个“不”字。然后就醒了。待到他们出门“砰”的一声,我就爬起来了。撒了泡尿,膀胱从极度充盈的紧绷状态中松懈下来,尿水射到马桶里,泡沫叠起,我一直很好奇这个:究竟是尿里有什么成份导致了...
评分我终于把她读完了,突然有写一段像那样的从抽离的片断里,描述的罩子里的自己,和从扭曲镜像里看到的他人。 我感觉那空白的大脑里吐出的文字却比经过缜密的脉络理顺的剧情来的更多的冲击和真实的感官力。我能嗅到医院里呛人的冰冷的味道,和死亡前无比清透的能触摸到的顺滑感!...
评分我在想 不该用一个自杀而死的女士作为我的精神标榜。但我似乎无法抵抗她的文字。是这样,还没有大量的读过她的诗篇,就先看了这个自传类小说,从前总觉得自传要厚厚一本,要尽量的流水账,长版的简历一样啰啰嗦嗦的阐述一生。 她是一个让我目不转睛的女人。一年以前...
评分我是个含笑的女人。 我才三十岁。 像猫一样可死九次。 ——Sylvia Plath 第一次读到Sylvia Plath的诗时,就被它字里行间不加掩饰的宣泄气质所吸引。正是青涩又乖戾的年纪,不担心生活,不担心爱情,不担心未来,不担心身边的一切。刚走出一阵自闭的时光,仿佛要偿还漫长时...
smart, witty but just too depressing
评分"to the person in The Bell Jar, black and stopped as a dead baby, the world itself is a bad dream." 如果在青春期讀,也許會非常喜歡並被打動。可是之前已經看過太多同類的訴說。它對於後來同類故事(書和電影)的影響還是顯而可見的
评分a melancholy and breath-catching novel. 期待读sylvia plath的诗歌集.
评分Life is but a dream, a terrible dream yet a nightmare.
评分Lotta Love...don't know why...
