Quotes
"I have a schedule prescription for each hour in the day; he takes all care from me, and so I feel basely ungrateful not to value it more." "I always lock the door when I creep by daylight. I can't do it at night, for I know John would suspect something at once."The Yellow Wallpaper is a short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, first published in 1892. The story is narrated by a woman who is confined to her bedroom by her husband and doctor, and who becomes increasingly obsessed with the yellow wallpaper in her room.
As the story progresses, the narrator descends into madness and becomes convinced that the wallpaper is alive and is watching her. The story is a powerful and harrowing exploration of the effects of social isolation and patriarchal oppression on women's mental health.
The Yellow Wallpaper has been praised for its feminist themes, its haunting and vivid imagery, and its masterful use of psychological horror. The story is considered a classic of American literature, and it has been adapted into many films, plays, and other media.
