西尔维娅·普拉斯(1932—1963),美国著名女诗人,小说家。诗集《庞然大物》、《爱丽尔》被认为是1960年代“自白派”诗歌的代表作。八岁那年父亲去世后,她便不断在诗中歌吟死亡,也曾多次试图自杀。1956年,与英国著名诗人特德·休斯一见钟情,闪电结婚。1962年两人分居。1963年她的自传体小说《钟形罩》出版三周后,她自杀身亡。普拉斯的诗歌是20世纪的一个奇迹,在她死后多年为她赢得了普利策诗歌奖。
The Bell Jar is a classic of American literature, with over two million copies sold in this country. This extraordinary work chronicles the crackup of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, successful -- but slowly going under, and maybe for the last time. Step by careful step, Sylvia Plath takes us with Esther through a painful month in New York as a contest-winning junior editor on a magazine, her increasingly strained relationships with her mother, and with the boy she dated in college, and eventually, devastatingly, into the madness itself. The reader is drawn into her breakdown with such intensity that her insanity 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 rare in any novel. It points to the fact that The Bell Jar is a largely autobiographical work about Plath's own summer of 1953, when she was a guest editor at Mademoiselle and went through a breakdown. It reveals so much about the sources of Sylvia Plath's own tragedy that its publication was considered a landmark in literature.
"Esther Greenwood's account of her years in The Bell Jar is as clear and readable as it is witty and disturbing ... [This] is not a potboiler, nor a series of ungrateful caricatures; it is literature." -New York Times
This special 25th-anniversary edition includes a new foreword by Frances McCullough,who was the Harper & Row editor for the original edition, about the untold story of The Bell Jar's first American publication.
“对于困在钟形罩里的人,那个大脑空白生长停止的人,这世界本身无疑是一场噩梦。“ 普拉斯的处境似我。二十三岁,除了文学略通以外缺乏任何基本的生存能力,任何一次退稿都造成致命的打击,缺乏交流,诸事不顺,没有勇气一次性告别虚假的生活。爱情也渐渐熄灭,电疗除了带来噩...
评分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...
评分读普拉斯的时候,适合听轻音乐,她的文字暗暗涌动着一股倾覆一切的力量,温和却锋利。一位饱含情感的作家,敏感、细腻,恐惧着一切,又与一切不断地抗争。一本《钟形罩》,像将积蓄了一生的力量顷刻爆发出来。她小心的存在着,像个生活的旁观者,在自己头上绑一根线然后放手,...
评分这世界上写诗的人永远比读诗的人要多. 我猜知道Plath是自杀而死的人也比读过她诗的人要多. Plath用笔名发表了这本<钟型罩>, 她比喻自己的抑郁症为钟型罩 - 外面的世界跟她只隔着玻璃, 她看的一清二楚, 但是身在钟型罩中的她却缺氧抑郁. 看书之前生怕这是本抱怨生活, 责怪老天...
