Narrado con soberbia precisión psicológica y dramática, El tapiz amarillo se destaca por la autenticidad imaginativa con la que pinta el descenso a la locura de una mujer y por la fuerza de su testimonio de la importancia que la libertad tiene para la mujer.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935), also known as Charlotte Perkins Stetson, was a prominent American sociologist, novelist, writer of short stories, poetry, and nonfiction, and a lecturer for social reform. She was a utopian feminist during a time when her accomplishments were exceptional for women, and she served as a role model for future generations of feminists because of her unorthodox concepts and lifestyle. Her best remembered work today is her semi-autobiographical short story, "The Yellow Wallpaper", which she wrote after a severe bout of post-partum depression.
Imagínense ser mujer y tener depresión post parto en años donde no se le daba importancia a la mujer, ni mucho menos a la salud mental… este relato cuenta esto.
La parte de ni siquiera confiar en tu diario y guardar secretos me encanta, interpreto dos finales; la protagonista cayó en la locura o se su**ida colgándose, ambos finales me gustan mucho
