The Yellow Wall-Paper and Other Writings by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
There is no female mind. The brain is not an organ of sex. Might as well speak of a female liver.--Charlotte Perkins Gilman>Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935), a leading figure in the women's movement of the early twentieth century, is a pillar of the American feminist canon. This edition of her work includes her best-known story, The Yellow Wall-paper, a terrifying tale about a woman driven to the brink of insanity by the rest cure she is ordered to follow by her doctor to relieve her postpartum depression. Also included is a wide range of other short stories; an abridged version of her little-known but brilliant utopian novel, Herland, about a peaceful all-female world; and selections from her landmark treatise, Women and Economics, first published in 1898 to universal acclaim.| SKU | Unavailable |
