She is a woman forced, ostensibly for her own good, into a 'rest cure', a psychological straitjacket so constricting that she begins to unravel. Her mental dissolution is described with such fierce immediacy that \u003ci\u003eThe Yellow Wallpaper\u003c\/i\u003e has been read and anthologized as a chilling horror tale. While it can easily be appreciated for its disorienting thrills, the story's true resonance comes from its matter-of-fact portrayal of a woman pushed to the rim of sanity by society's demands and her family's utter inability to conceive of the fact that she cannot fit within their strictures. Shot through with unforgettable images of the yellow wallpaper, its shadowy depths and what seems to lurk there, \u003ci\u003eThe Yellow Wallpaper\u003c\/i\u003e builds to a climax that combines the narrative impact of an Edgar Allan Poe story with a wrenching protest of the treatment of women. Unique and genre-bending, Gilman's story was unrivaled in its era and its power endures undiminished today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Yellow Wallpaper\u003c\/i\u003e is both modern and readable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffering a startlingly intense look into a how a woman's mental state is dramatically worsened by efforts taken to cure it, \u003ci\u003eThe Yellow Wallpaper\u003c\/i\u003e by \u003cb\u003eCharlotte Perkins Gilman\u003c\/b\u003e is justly acclaimed as both a gripping classic of gothic horror and a landmark of feminist fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.05 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 08, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42692701847615,"sku":"9781513264585","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/70e9d5000f90c57c1e8da7728dd9c50d.webp?v=1764996308","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/the-yellow-wallpaper-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
