The Yellow Wallpaper

I love to read short stories in English, and Gothic and Gore genres are one of my favorites. The Yellow Wallpaper is a very descriptive story about mental disorders and hallucinations. The protagonist of The Yellow Wallpaper is a woman under great emotional stress. A woman in the limit of consciousness, trapped between reality and fantasy. I think this is the best short story I've read in the English language, written by a woman. The way she uses metaphors, the obsession with the color of the wall, and the unexpected ending, make this story one of my favorites. Definitely 5 stars. Highly recommended.
