Set in a Victorian era, the story explores the psychological decline of a woman subjected to a "rest cure" by her husband after childbirth. Isolated in an oppressive room with disturbing yellow wallpaper, she becomes increasingly obsessed with her surroundings, leading to her descent into madness. This narrative serves as a critical commentary on early 20th-century patriarchal views regarding women's mental and physical health, marking it as a significant early American feminist work.
