shyacinth 's review for:

The Yellow Wall-Paper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
4.5
dark mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Long build-up towards the ending. The narrator's situation is frustrating and sad, but makes it a great feminist piece. And the fixation on the wallpaper adds to its surrealism.
