Charlotte Perkins Gilman · 1892 · Short story
A woman is prescribed the "rest cure" by her physician husband and confined to a room with hideous wallpaper. Her diary tracks, in real time, what isolation does to a mind that was perfectly fine before being silenced. A short, devastating piece of feminist literature.
