Charlotte Perkins Gilman
The Yellow Wallpaper and Other Stories
Paperback
(Penguin Jan. 1, 1995)
One of 60 low-priced classic texts published to celebrate Penguin's 60th anniversary for the Penguin 60's Classics series. All the titles are extracts from "Penguin Classics" titles and the format is a 'pocket book'. A classic of "female Gothic" by an American feminist pioneer. In "The Yellow Wallpaper," a wife is driven mad by her husband's "cure' for her desire to write. In four other somewhat happier stories Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935) illuminates the struggle of turn-of-the-century women to shake loose traditional sex-roles and establish a society based on women's stronger sense of moral justice. This little pocket book includes the following stories: The Yellow Wallpaper; When I was a Witch; Turned; Making a Change; If I Were A Man.
