Set in the late 19th century, the story explores themes of mental health and gender roles through the experiences of a woman confined to a room by her husband for rest cure treatment. As she becomes increasingly obsessed with the yellow wallpaper in her room, her descent into madness reflects the oppressive societal norms of the time. The narrative serves as a powerful critique of the treatment of women and the misunderstanding of mental illness, showcasing the struggle for autonomy and self-expression.
