The Yellow Wallpaper

The Yellow Wallpaper is a powerful and unsettling short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, exploring themes of mental illness, isolation, and the societal expectations placed on women. The story follows a woman confined to a room by her husband, prescribed “rest” as a cure for her mental health. As her confinement deepens, she becomes obsessed with the room’s yellow wallpaper, slowly losing her grip on reality.

Narrated by Tiffany Magnuson, this audiobook captures the psychological intensity of Gilman’s narrative, drawing listeners into the claustrophobic and eerie world of the protagonist’s mind.

Perfect for fans of classic literature, feminist fiction, and psychological thrillers, The Yellow Wallpaper remains a timeless and chilling critique of the treatment of women in the 19th century.
