'The yellow wall-paper' is an extraordinary story of a woman's descent into madness. Confined in a room whose wallpaper becomes her only stimulus, the narrator's horrifying fantasy is made all to vividly real. This edition also features short stories that throw new light on the author as a practitioner of the art of fiction and on her imaginative treatment of the situation of 'the woman of fifty'. She shows women who no longer have a traditional domestic function but who nevertheless find a new purpose and succeed on their own terms.
