"The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
A spellbinding, gothic tale by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. The story is a critique of the "rest cure" prescribed for women's mental health issues in the 19th century. It also serves as a powerful allegory for women's lack of autonomy and the stifling nature of gender roles in society.
