The release date for the English version of 'The Bell Jar' by Sylvia Plath is Jan 2006. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.

The Bell Jar follows Esther Greenwood's downfall from smart, beautiful, very talented, and prosperous to slowly collapsing—possibly for the final time. With such skill and intensity, Sylvia Plath immerses the reader in Esther's breakdown, making her insane seem very plausible and even reasonable—as likely and approachable an experience as going to the movies. A remarkable feat, this deep dive into the scary and dark recesses of the mind has turned The Bell Jar into a terrifying American classic.
