The Yellow Wallpaper and Other Writings

Part of the Gibbs Smith Women's Voices series: a collection of literary voices written by, and for, extraordinary women - to encourage, challenge, and inspire.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935) championed women's rights in her prolific fiction, nonfiction, and poetry.

Discover three influential works by one of America's first feminists in their unabridged form: the short story The Yellow Wallpaper, a haunting interpretation of postpartum depression, the feminist utopian novel Herland, and Women and Economics, which when published in 1898 established Gilman as a sociologist, philosopher, ethicist, and social critic, and is considered by many to be her greatest work.
