'The Yellow Wallpaper has lost none of its power to chill the blood. It is the archetypal feminist horror story, the account of a young woman suffering "temporary nervous depression" who is treated by her grotesquely self-assured physician husband ... Stifled, isolated and forbidden any sort of activity, her illness curdles into full-blown madness.' - The Guardian Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a prominent American humanist, novelist, writer of short stories, poetry and nonfiction, and a lecturer for social reform. She was a utopian feminist and served as a role model for future generations of feminists because of her unorthodox concepts and lifestyle. Her best remembered work today is her semi-autobiographical story The Yellow Wallpaper, which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis. 'More than a century later, Charlotte Perkins Gilman's stories retain their capacity to burn' - The Guardian 'The Yellow Wallpaper is rightly regarded as Gilman's best fictional work ... A captivating mix of perspicacity, subversiveness, and humor, propelled by an admirable taste for experimentation ... Once she'd found her stride, Gilman was unstoppable.' - The New York Review of Books
