Abstract on The Yellow Wallpaper

In the story The Yellow Wallpaper, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, there are many theories about what is really happening. In my essay called The Wallpaper, I talk about how the wallpaper drove the narrator to insanity. I don't think there was a woman in the wallpaper that came out or anything, I just think the narrator was just insane and crazy. I think she became insane by doing nothing and having to stare at the wallpaper all day until she finally started seeing things in it and making up stuff. The wallpaper was also the color yellow which is supposed to be a happy bright color but in this case it is creepy and insane.
