Sobre el libro

"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story by American writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman, told through first-person journal entries. A woman's physician husband rents an old mansion and confines her to an upstairs nursery for the summer, forbidding her to work or write; with nothing else to do, she observes the peeling yellow wallpaper as she gradually descends into madness. It is regarded as an important early work of American feminist literature and is also lauded as an excellent work of horror fiction.
