The Bell Jar

The Bell Jar pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

To this day, Sylvia Plath's writings continue to inspire and provoke. Her only published novel, The Bell Jar, remains a classic of American literature, and The Colossus (1960), Ariel (1965), Crossing the Water (1971), Winter Trees (1971), and The Collected Poems (1981) have placed her among this century's essential American poets.

Sylvia Plath was born on October 27, 1932, the first child of Aurelia and Otto Plath. When Sylvia was eight years old, her father died--an event that would haunt her remaining years--and the family moved to the college town of Wellesley. By high school, Plath's talents were firmly established; in fact, her first published poem had appeared when she was eight. In 1950, she entered Smith College, where she excelled academically and continued to write; and in 1951 she won Mademoiselle magazine's fiction contest. Her experiences during the summer of 1953--as a guest editor at Mademoiselle in New York City and in deepening depression back home--provided the basis for The Bell Jar. Near that summer's end, Plath nearly succeeded in killing herself. After therapy and electroshock, however, she resumed her academic and literary endeavors. Plath graduated from Smith in 1955 and, as a Fulbright Scholar, entered Newnham College, in Cambridge, England, where she met the British poet, Ted Hughes. They were married a year later. After a two-year tenure on the Smith College faculty and a brief stint in Boston, Plath and Hughes returned to England, where their two children were born.

Plath had been successful in placing poems in several prestigious magazines, but suffered repeated rejection in her attempts to place a first book. The Colossus appeared in England, however, in the fall of 1960, and the publisher, William Heinemann, also bought her first novel. By June 1962, she had begun the poems that eventually appeared in Ariel. Later that year, separated from Hughes, Plath immersed herself in caring for her children, completing The Bell Jar, and writing poems at a breathtaking pace.

A few days before Christmas 1962, she moved with the children to a London flat. By the time The Bell Jar was published under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas, in early 1963, she was in desperate circumstances. Her marriage was over, she and her children were ill, and the winter was the coldest in a century. Early on the morning of February 11, Plath turned on the cooking gas and killed herself.

Plath was posthumously awarded a Pulitzer Prize in 1982 for her Collected Poems.

Esther Greenwood is brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under—maybe for the last time. In her acclaimed and enduring masterwork, Sylvia Plath brilliantly draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that her insanity becomes palpably real, even rational—as accessible an experience as going to the movies. A deep penetration into the darkest and most harrowing corners of the human psyche, The Bell Jar is an extraordinary accomplishment and a haunting American classic.

无论从作者还是主人公来说,刚开始都是一个很美好的形象,自立自强,动脑筋,聪明,快乐,活泼。 不知道为啥,会选择这样一个很悲剧的结局。人生的命运在于思考在于实践,不在于绝望,或者消极地面对。 看了这个故事很难过。也为作者不值得。~~~~~她如果活到80岁,可以创作更...

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!...

如果Slyvia Plath生于如今的网络时代,不知道她还会不会成为诗人。网络时代让每个人都有成为诗人、小说家的可能,尽管这是一个诗意越来越少的时代,个人经验也因为过度泛滥而贬值。 每个人都有自己的恐惧、莫名的梦、生活中的小骄傲小沮丧。网络提供了诉说和分享的平台,也就是...

看了豆瓣的评论,难道这本书只是我们的女文青自怨自怜自我装B的产物吗?
