Bell Jar Chapter 1 The novel opens in New York City, in the same summer that the infamous?Rosenbergs?were executed (that's 1953, for those of you a little fuzzy on your American history). The unnamed narrator is one of twelve college students who has won an all-expenses-paid internship at a fashion magazine. The magazine job comes with a lot of perks like free makeup and concert tickets, but the narrator doesn't feel particularly lucky or successful. Instead, she can't help obsessing over the Rosenbergs and the gruesome details of their execution. The narrator stays at the Amazon, a residence for young, professional women, with the other interns.
