A women spends all her time in a country mansion. She is in-prisoned within her marriage, social order, and her house. She is losing her sanity day by day. This all stemmed from her confiding in her husband about her postpartum experience. The narrator (which is the woman) is confined in a barded window room with yellow wallpaper. She also lives in the house with a woman named Jenny who is her husbands sister. she whole heartedly believes that she is sick. She can be seen as a metaphor for those who don’t realize that they’re oppressed and still agree with the oppressor’s. The narrator knows she perceives life differently from her husband; with is her doctor. John has complete control over his wife’s body. He gives her treatments and medications that confuse and over work her. Part of the treatment was isolation with meant she couldn’t write, work, or socialize.  The only thing she could do was stare at the yellow wallpaper.Due to this she confesses her thoughts on dead paper making it in a journal. Each time the narrator discusses leaving the house John makes light of her illness and her disgust with the wallpaper grows stronger.The color and the appearance of the wallpaper intensifies, and eventually, the wallpaper takes on a life of its own as the narrator’s grip on reality loosens completely. She begins to see a woman crawling on the wall. she sees the wallpaper as an emotional rollercoaster and analyzes each strip of wallpaper.The patterns only emerge when patterns seem significant to each other. She could smell the wallpaper everywhere and hates it. This smell could remind her of her captivity. At the wallpaper changes as the light changes. At night it becomes dim and plain like her captivity. After a while, she believes that the wallpaper has many women behind it. she longs to free these women. On her last day staring at the wallpaper, she rips it down and and reacts the crawling women that she saw behind the wallpaper. Destroying the wallpaper can be seen as liberation for her and the women that she saw behind the wallpaper. As she is crawling, her husband walks in, sees her, and faints in disbelief. She begins to crawl over him in circles around the room. Doing this broke gender normalities in this time and age.
