This week, Stauney and Sadie talk about the popular short story by Charlotte Perkins Gillman, "The Yellow Wallpaper" about a woman's descent into madness after her husband locks her in the home's nursery to "cure her" of a nervous breakdown. We start by briefly discussing the Hulu special "I Was a Child Bride: The Untold Story" and discuss the plight of young women in the United States. We then talk about the author of the story, her personal reasons behind writing the narrative, the effect it had on the public, and how we felt about the story itself.
