How might we/you move from an abhorrence of our yellow wallpaper to a fascination with it only to finally become trapped behind it--a victim of our/your own obsession?

“The Yellow Wallpaper”, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, is a symbol of the social strucutre that confines women to domestic submission.
