The Yellow Wall-Paper, Herland, and Selected Writings by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
A collection of the groundbreaking feminist writer’s most famous works, with a thought-provoking introduction by bestselling author Kate Bolick
Wonderfully sardonic and slyly humorous, the writings of landmark American feminist and socialist thinker Charlotte Perkins Gilman were penned in response to her frustrations with the gender-based double standard that prevailed in America as the twentieth century began. Perhaps best known for her chilling depiction of a woman’s mental breakdown in her unforgettable 1892 short story ‘The Yellow Wall-Paper’, Gilman also wrote Herland, a wry novel that imagines a peaceful, progressive country from which men have been absent for two thousand years. Both are included in this volume, along with a selection of Gilman’s major short stories and her poems. New York Times bestselling author Kate Bolick contributes an illuminating introduction that explores Gilman’s fascinating yet complicated life.
