Charlotte Perkins Gilman is surely an unsung heroine of the feminist movement, eloquently and logically writing stories of women succeeding in all areas of life and proving themselves just as capable, if not more, as any man. The yellow wallpaper has a fantastic thrill of horror, particularly to the modern woman who would have had a similar fate in the 1800s. Each story different but with a care message the same throughout - don't you dare underestimate a woman.
