She's the youngest of an affluent, prominent family headed by her eldest brother, Gideon Cross—one of the richest men in the world.

The Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful but slowly going under - maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's insanity becomes completely real and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such deep penetration into the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche is an extraordinary accomplishment and has made The Bell Jar a haunting American classic.

The story follows Esther Greenwood, a bright and ambitious college student who wins a prestigious internship in New York City. What begins as a promising experience quickly unravels as Esther feels increasingly disconnected from the glamorous world around her and begins to spiral into depression. Plath's prose is both lyrical and razor-sharp, capturing the nuances of Esther's internal conflict with remarkable precision. Through her protagonist's descent into mental illness, Plath explores themes of alienation, gender roles, and the suffocating pressures of perfectionism and conformity.

With over 1 million social media followers who trust her no-nonsense, easy-to-understand Medicare and Social Security advice, Attorney Sylvia Gordon cuts through the confusion to help you make the right decisions the first time.

I can't stop picturing his hot, muscled body. I can't stop imagining myself underneath him, his breath hot in my ear. He's my best friend. And suddenly that's not enough.

Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness... He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me.
