{"product_id":"the-yellow-wallpaper","title":"Charlotte Perkins Gilman: The Yellow Wallpaper [2021] paperback","description":"In 1892 a furious Charlotte Perkins Gilman put pen to paper and created the avant-garde feminist work The Yellow Wallpaper as a warning - in this haunting Gothic tale, a woman is confined to a room and forbidden to do anything interesting - and she loses her mind. In 1887, following a severe nervous breakdown, Gilman had been sent to a leading neurologist, she explains in 'Why I Wrote The Yellow Wallpaper', also included in this volume. He was a 'wise man' who 'put me to bed and applied the rest cure... and sent me home with solemn advice to \"live as domestic a life as far as possible\"... and \"never to touch pen, brush or pencil again\" as long as I lived. I went home and obeyed those directions for some three months, and came so near the borderline of utter mental ruin that I could see over.' The Yellow Wallpaper is both a haunting illustration of the treatment of mental health and a chilling Gothic tale, and this new edition makes it ready to enchant another generation of readers.","brand":"Gilman, Charlotte Perkins","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":47981148963155,"sku":"XV81913724160","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/gilman-charlotte-perkins-the-yellow-wallpaper-xv81913724160-55405745340755.jpg?v=1712949073","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.com\/products\/the-yellow-wallpaper","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
