"The Yellow Wallpaper" and Other Stories" is by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. A wonderful book of realistic short stories from a woman's point of view. "The Yellow Wallpaper" is probably Gilman's most famous story a woman going mad. "Cottagette" is the story of a woman trying to convince a man to marry her. "Turned" is the story of a wife who discovers her husband has been unfaithful with a servant. The other stories are equally brilliantly written. A great introduction to the art of the short story.
Ratings: 9th grade - 9 out of 10 - AC (some mild adult content).
