A review by hauntingcare
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

« I felt dreadfully inadequate. The trouble was, I had been inadequate all along, I simply hadn’t thought about it. »

depending on which author you read from, depression can feel icy blue, grimy yellow - here, it is grey and dull. it is slow-moving and uneventful, discouraging and exhausting in its routine. there is no moral to this story ; we're all standing under our own individual bell jar.
