The Yellow Wallpaper
Well I must say that this story was very intresting and had a funny twist about it. This story is mainly about a wife that is claimed to have a nervous problem and is told to basicly be on bed rest. While on "bed rest", she began to keep a journal that her husband and sister in- law is unaware about. In the journal she writes everytime that the wallpaper in their room shows a symbol or pictures of an object or person. In my opinion, I feel that the plot of the story is about a woman, who is married and discovers that being in her bedroom and noticing the weird nursery wallpaper later shows a reflection of how are life really is and how her husband may be the person who is holding her back from the world.

Yes, you're gettin on to something, in a very general way, in the last statement. Explore that. See my comments on this story under "older posts" on the class blog homepage.
ReplyDeleteI agree this lady's obssesion with the Wallpaper does grow into a dicovery of her inner self. However it's not the wallpaper all alone but her imagination that drives her almost insane.
