Description
The Yellow Wallpaper, first published in January 1892, is regarded as an important piece of American feminist literature, illustrating attitudes in the 19th century toward women's health, both physical and mental. It explores key issues imposed by the patriarchal society and paved the way for other leading feminist writers; Sylvia Plath and Alice Walker.
