TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions of suicide.
What do UN interpreters, tuberculosis, and turkey necks have to do with dating? Ask Esther. Our main character in the novel The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath navigates her world while struggling with depression and it is sometimes funny, sometimes suffocating, sometimes nothing - all, real. This semi-autobiographical novel is a classic for a reason. Sylvia Plath writes with nuance.
