The Сlassic Сollection of Sylvia Plath: The Bell Jar, The Colossus and Other Poems

This collection brings together two of Sylvia Plath's most iconic works, showcasing her profound influence on modern literature. The Bell Jar, Plath's only novel, offers a deeply personal and haunting portrayal of a young woman's struggle with mental illness.

Through vivid, evocative prose, Plath explores themes of identity, societal pressure, and personal freedom, making The Bell Jar a timeless exploration of the human psyche. Alongside her novel, this collection features The Colossus and Other Poems, Plath's first collection of poetry. These poems, marked by their emotional intensity and linguistic brilliance, reveal the depth of her imagination and the complexity of her inner world. Drawing from mythology, history, and personal experience, Plath's poetry delves into themes of grief, creativity, and self-exploration.
