The Bell Jar
by
It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn’t know what I was doing in New York.
I know you this but i don't know why. I am reading this book because I watched a documentary on Sylvia Plath that centered on the Bell Jar. For some reason, i connect to Sylvia, almost as if she is mirroring me, which scares me a bit but pulls me in at the same time.
