  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. First published in 1892, Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s, The Yellow Wallpaper is a haunting tale of isolation, confinement, and psychological unraveling. 
   
  Confined to an upstairs room by her physician husband, a young woman is forbidden to work or write as she recovers from what he calls a temporary nervous condition. With little to occupy her, she becomes increasingly fascinated by the room’s strange yellow wallpaper. As the days pass, its chaotic patterns seem to take on a life of their own, and she begins to see a woman trapped behind them. 
   
  Part psychological horror, part powerful examination of the restrictions placed on women in the nineteenth century, The Yellow Wallpaper remains one of the most unsettling and enduring short stories in American literature. 
   
  This complete and unabridged audiobook brings Gilman’s disturbing story of confinement and obsession to life.
