The Yellow Wall-Paper

The Yellow Wallpaper was delightfully eerie. The author, Charlotte Gilman did not reveal the main characters name until the paragraph preceding the last when she writes. "I've got out at last, in spite of you and Jane! And I've pulled off most of the paper, so you can't put me back." Her husband promptly faints, which I thought was kind of odd. I would be shocked, but I don't think I would pass out. Poor Jane had become the imaginary woman behind the hideous urine toned paper. I do hope she regains her senses, but I am not optimistic.
