This volume collects two classic works by Charlotte Perkins Gilman: The Yellow Wallpaper – a chilling tale of descent into madness – and What Diantha Did, an early feminist work. Gilman (1860 - 1935) 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 known work is her semi-autobiographical short story The Yellow Wallpaper, which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis.
