I enjoyed it quite a lot^^
 I found the writing lovely even if it's a very dark read... 

I was waiting for one small story about a yellow wallpaper, I was surprised to found 3 smaller stories about different things... 

i'm sure there is much more to say about it, I don't think I quite yet understood everything but I sure want to go back and underline many great lines, and try make assomptions about what I think every ending meant and what they tell us..... ~ 

I would recommend

Short but compelling story about women's mental health and controlling husbands. Great read.
