The Yellow Wallpaper

Listen to *The Yellow Wallpaper* by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a landmark psychological short story about isolation, identity, and the cost of denying a woman’s own perception. Confined to an upstairs room under a supposed “rest cure,” a woman becomes increasingly absorbed by the strange pattern of the yellow wallpaper around her. Her private journal records a growing struggle between medical authority, domestic control, and the desperate need to make sense of what she sees. Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic literature, psychological fiction, feminist literature, Gothic atmosphere, and powerful literary short stories.
