Description

This semi-autobiographical novel provides an honest exploration of mental illness through the experiences of Esther Greenwood, a young woman struggling to find her identity in 1950s America. As she descends into depression, Esther navigates societal expectations and personal turmoil, illustrating the challenges faced by women of her time. The narrative combines dark humour with poignant observations on mental health and societal pressures, making it a powerful commentary on the quest for self-acceptance and belonging. This illustrated edition enhances the reading experience with visual interpretations of Plath's themes.
