Description



Book Synopsis



En el 60.° aniversario de su publicación original, la edición ilustrada por Sonia Pulido (Premio Nacional de Ilustración) rinde homenaje a una voz única de las letras norteamericanas.

«Respiré profundamente y escuché el antiguo estribillo de mi corazón.

Yo soy, yo soy, yo soy».

Esta es la historia de una chica que tiene todo lo que una joven puede desear en el Nueva York de los años cincuenta: una carrera prometedora, un pretendiente que estudia medicina y toda una vida por delante. Esther Greenwood ha ganado una beca para trabajar en una revista de moda en la gran ciudad y siente que por fin podrá realizar su sueño de ser escritora. Pero entre cócteles, noches de fiesta y pilas de manuscritos descubre una sociedad que repudia las aspiraciones de las mujeres y su vida empieza a desmoronarse. Esther -alter ego de la autora- se encierra en sí misma, como si estuviera atrapada en una campana de cristal: respirando continuamente el mismo aire viciado y sin posibilidad de escapar.

Sesenta años después de su publicación original, La campana de cristal se ha convertido en un clásico moderno, y las palabras de Plath conservan todo su impacto. Esta obra icónica, como dice Aixa de la Cruz en el prólogo, «viaja al presente como una corriente eléctrica y nos interpela de tú a tú, sin mediaciones».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

On the 60th anniversary since its original publication, this special edition illustrated by award-winning Sonia Pulido pays tribute to a unique voice in North American literature.

A haunting American classic: a realistic and emotional novel about a woman battling mental illness and societal pressures written by the iconic American writer Sylvia Plath.

"It is this perfectly wrought prose and the freshness of Plath's voice in The Bell Jar that make this book enduring in its appeal." -- USA Today

The Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under--maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's neurosis becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is an extraordinary accomplishment and has made The Bell Jar an enduring classic.



About the Author



Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) es una de las escritoras más admiradas del siglo XX. Poeta, novelista y autora de relatos, su obra se ha convertido en un clásico contemporáneo. Sus escritos, incluido su primer poemario, El coloso (1960), tuvieron una gran acogida, pero su máximo reconocimiento fue fruto de la publicación póstuma de su colección Ariel (1962). Póstumamente obtuvo también el premio Pulitzer por su poesía. Sylvia Plath se suicidó a los treinta años, tras una larga depresión. Un mes antes de su muerte salió a la luz la que sería su única novela y su obra más icónica, La campana de cristal.
