👍Me gustó🔮Profundo🎯Justo en el blanco🚀AdictivoThere really is something universal about women becoming aware of our own pain and how it will constantly hang about us, how it will never disappear- much how the bell jar can be lifted for some amount of time but it waits until it closes up around you again. It's unavoidable and constant, same as our fight to have our morals and wishes respected. Plath writes the truth about marriage that women know perfectly well and yet tend to ignore in pursuit of love, thinking that for them something will be different. "And I knew that in spite of all the roses and kisses and restaurant dinners a man showered on a woman before he married her, what he secretly wanted when the wedding service ended was for her to flatten out underneath his feet like Mrs. Willard's kitchen mat." The bell jar spares no woman.

The silence depressed me. It wasn’t the silence of silence. It was my own silence. - Táliacompartió una citahace 5 años
It didn’t seem to be summer any more. I could feel the winter shaking my bones and banging my teeth together, and the big white hotel towel I had dragged down with me lay under my head numb as a snowdrift. - ueremeevacompartió una citahace 6 años
I thought the most beautiful thing in the world must be shadow, the million moving shapes and cul-de-sacs of shadow. There was shadow in bureau drawers and closets and suitcases, and shadow under houses and trees and stones, and shadow at the back of people’s eyes and smiles, and shadow, miles and miles and miles of it, on the night side of the earth.
