Yellow Wallpaper: A Strong Friend, 1910 and 1950

writing

This wallpaper, I never saw so much expression in an intimate thing before

I used to feel that if any of the other things looked too fierce I could always hop into that chair and be safe

with Eleanor

there comes John sister

echo of jenny

Such a dear girl as she is, and so careful of me.

— I must not let her find me writing

Sounds like Mother

I verily believe she thinks it is the writing which made me sick! But I can write when she is out, and I see her a long way off from these windows.

This wallpaper has kind of a sub pattern in a different shade, a particularly irritating one, for you can only see it in certain lights, and certainly not then.

That seems to talk about behind that silly and conspicuous front design

There’s sister on the stairs!
