  An incisive reflection on identity and wealth, and a refreshing racial queer story of survival
  		 
  All Things Seen and Unseen follows Alex Nguyen, an isolated, chronically ill university student in her early 20s. After a suicide attempt and subsequent lengthy hospitalization, she finds herself without a job, kicked out of campus housing, unable to afford school, and still struggling in the aftermath of a relationship’s dissolution. Hope comes in the form of a rich high school friend who offers Alex a job housesitting at her family’s empty summer mansion on a gulf island.
  		 
  Surrounded by dense forest and ocean, in the increasingly oppressive heat of a 2010s summer, Alex must try to survive as an outsider in a remote, insular community; to navigate the awkward, unexpected beginnings of a possible new romance; and to live through the trauma she has repressed to survive, even as the memories — and a series of increasingly unnerving events — threaten to pull her back under the surface.

  Step into the peeling corners of a sunlit nursery where shadows weave stories, and the wallpaper whispers secrets to the solitary occupant. The Yellow Wallpaper is a haunting exploration of the fine line between reality and madness, told through the intimate, unraveling voice of a woman confined by both a stifling room and the suffocating norms of her time. In this groundbreaking work, Gilman transforms the mundane into the menacing, using the seemingly innocent patterns of wallpaper to reveal a tapestry of despair, resilience, and suppressed creativity.
  A masterpiece of psychological horror and feminist literature, this story dissects the dark undercurrents of Victorian-era domestic life and its oppressive impact on women's mental health. It invites readers to question the cost of silence, the weight of societal expectations, and the transformative power of imagination in the face of isolation.
  Whether you seek a spine-tingling Gothic tale or a profound commentary on gender and mental health, The Yellow Wallpaper beckons you to look closer—until you, too, can't look away.
