«El papel pintado amarillo» is a short story by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, published by Contraseña in 2012 in a bilingual edition.
A woman confined in a room contemplates the yellow wallpaper while her mental health deteriorates. The oppressive atmosphere turns the wallpaper into a catalyst for her madness and denounces the medical and social restrictions suffered by women of the time, in a critique of the loss of female autonomy and identity.
In paperback, with 83 pages. The translation is by María José Cirulla and the foreword by María Ángeles Naval.
For readers interested in nineteenth-century literature and in women's mental health.
Charlotte Anna Perkins Gilman, also known by her first married name Charlotte Perkins Stetson, was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, early sociologist, and advocate for social reform. She was an early and leading figure in the women's rights movement in the United States, and in modern terms is regarded as a socialist feminist.
