The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

First published in 1892, this perfect novel portrays with chilling power the powerlessness of women within Victorian marriage.
Even if the themes being explored might seem irrelevant to you today and especially to such young audience, I can assure you that this is not the case * Guardian *
A great work of literature, the product of a questing, burning intellect -- Maggie O'Farrell
I loved itI loved the unnerving, sarcastic tone, the creepy ending, the clarity of its critique of the popular nineteenth century * Paris Review *
Charlotte Anna Perkins (1860-1935) married at the age of twenty-four, but three years later separated from her husband. She was a writer of non-fiction and poetry, an editor, feminist theorist, and most of her work is about the status and oppression of women. She married again in 1900, but committed suicide a year after her husband died of inoperable cancer.
