I love Maggie Gyllenhaal's voice, she's done Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, but she's also done this!!

'Plath changed our world.' Guardian
Esther is supposed to be having the time of her life. Her internship at a fashion magazine is a whirl of cocktail parties and dinner dates in the shimmering city. But why doesn't she feel anything? Back home in the suburbs, she is trapped inside a suffocating bell jar . She can't write her novel; her boyfriend is a hypocrite; there seems no point in getting out of bed. As she spirals into darkness, her world becomes increasingly unreal ...
An unflinchingly honest portrait of a young woman's breakdown, Sylvia Plath's iconic The Bell Jar has transformed the lives of millions of readers since it was first published in 1963. Its witty, acidic, razor-sharp voice will stay with you forever.

I have in eBooks all I could ever want for Sylvia Plath, her Letters, all the Poetry, this amazing novel, which reading it is like watching a classic nouvelle vague film from the 60s, and a number of biographies. I love hearing interviews with her in them too, you can find whatever you need with the right words in the search query.
