Themes from "The Bell Jar"

1.) By being in an institution it may show you as being "defective", however, perhaps madness is a good thing.
"A Mad Desire to Dance," by Elie Wiesel or really any of his novels where he does try to bring appreciation upon the madmen that are in his stories.


2.) Maybe the institutions themselves are not places where awful things happen and perhaps the staff at these places may genuinely wish to help.



3.) Perhaps the things that you build up in your mind that are supposed to be big special moments, are actually just part of the everyday drudge of things.

Mad World, Gary Jules
