“I hated almost everything about this book. There are 2 good quotes but so much racism, fatphobia and I apparently DNFed it before the homophobia started. I don't get the hype at all.” — YouTuber Emily fox

The Bell Jar is a story about a woman named Esther Greenwood. Who’s brilliant, beautiful, and enormously talented but is slowly breaking down.
It is said that Sylvia Plath have masterfully drawn the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's insanity becomes completely real and even rational.

Is that really possible? Read the book with us and find out!

The Bell Jar is considered a haunting American classic that is loved by many and also hated by some. The reviews of this book can be quite mixed from those who think it’s a masterpiece and others who can’t figure out why did she have to beat up a black man.

In this session we will be covering the entirety of this book. So I expect you all to finish it before the session.

Until then, take care.
