I was a bit dubious about the tale when I started it, but I loved it by the end! The ending was so creepy and I really enjoyed it.
The metaphor of the woman in the wallpaper versus our narrator's mind was so good! She is subdued and stifled in the day, when her husband or Jennie or others are around, but is free to run at night.
