A must-read/listen

If you haven’t taken in this content, you should because a surprising amount of pop culture references will make a lot more sense.

odd

miss Erivo is excellent and very engaging!
the story does seem to grab you and draw you into her world and make you wonder about this yellow wallpaper but, then that's it..poof it kinda looses you and then it ends.
oh well... font know if I'll recommend it..

Excellent

Creepy, eerie but also sad. Well worth the hype surrounding this short story. I'm glad I finally read this.

The reading

Beautifully read by Cynthia Erivo. A story of despair and constraints placed on women that echo the times of now. Charlotte Gilman gives strength to the character that leaves you feeling empowered.

Hard to understand the theme

Very catchy from beginning confused ending. Didn’t even know it was fine it was a short book
