The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Never before has an author managed such a thorough haunting with such meager tools as 1) an inanimate object 2) a benign color 3) 129 pages?? 4) the manifestations of structural misogyny in the interpersonal. 4.5/5

The Yellow Wallpaper

“A short story about a woman struggling with postpartum depression. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Cynthia Erivo - highly recommend!”

“A husband and wife go to a house near the sea to improve the wife's mental condition, but she finds something strange about the wallpaper. This is probably the most recommended short story ever, but am I going to recommend it again, not least because it features the greatest use of the word creep in the English language. Knocks me out every time!”
