The Yellow Wallpaper

by

The Yellow Wallpaper is a short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, first published in 1892. It is a seminal piece of feminist literature that explores themes of mental illness, the oppression of women, and the impact of societal norms on individual identity. The narrative follows a woman's descent into madness as she is confined to a room with yellow wallpaper, which becomes a symbol of her entrapment.
