Charlotte Perkins Gilman
The Yellow Wallpaper
eBook
( Sept. 1, 2017)
Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story from 1892, is a classic example of the way women were treated in that time. The woman, who suffers from post-partum depression, has been diagnosed by her physican husband with 'temporary nervous depression', and a slight hysterical tendency. She has been locked up in the attic of the victorian home that they have just moved into, a former children's nursery with horrid yellow wallpaper. As the story progresses, the woman falls deeper and deeper into a depressive state, as she has nothing to keep herself preoccupied except for the yellow wallpaper. She becomes even more obsessed with it, to the point of extreme psychosis.
