"The Yellow Wallpaper"


The Yellow Wallpaper was another good story that we had to read. It was about a woman who was going through some mental issue, and she was taken into care by her husband.  John her husband was her doctor, who put her in an isolated room with nothing but yellow wallpaper. She spends months in the room, with nothing to do. After some time she became insane, and started to illusionate that there was a women within the yellow wall paper. As time went by she began to lose a grip of reality, and started to become distant from her friends and family.  While in the room she was trying to accomplish one thing and that was to set the lady free within the wallpaper. This symbolize her becoming free from the room She became obsessed with the wallpaper. Jennie who was the sister of the husband begins to notice some strange thing around the room, like yellow stain over the wall and stuff. She eventually ripped the wallpaper off the wall and began to crawl over the place, and was later approached by her husband at the door where he fainted, and she was left free to leave the room.
