Chp. 17-18

What does Esther mean when she says she feels trapped under a bell jar?

It means that she is under a bell jar where people see her and judge her. Being in a bell jar means people can see you and judge you but you can't say how you feel. She feels like she is a insider and different than everyone else. Nobody like Dr. Gordon can understand her thoughts but they just critizise her. She feels there is no where to escape but in her Bell Jar where she is judged.
I feel Esther will eventually be out of her jar by moving to a different state or by taking her life
