The Yellow Wallpaper

The Yellow Wallpaper surrounds the character Woman, aptly named just that, and her story of isolation and obsession. Says Morley, “Whenever The Yellow Wallpaper comes up in conversation, I am always struck by the fervor that people—especially women—have for the story. It delves into the persistent reality of how women are dismissed and silenced, and regularly forced into isolation—emotionally, psychologically and or physically—and it feels as honest and timely now as it did in 1892 when first written.”
