Description

Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" is one of the key texts in American women's fiction and also a rallying cry for feminism. Since its original printing in 1892, it has been routinely anthologized in collections of women's literature, American literature, and textbooks. This volume gathers nine other equally momentous stories by a diverse group of renowned American women authors who changed the world with their compelling tales.

Authors whose stories appear in this unique collection are: Charlotte Perkins Gilman Djuna Barnes Kate Chopin Sui Sin Far Zora Neale Hurston Nella Larsen Gertrude Stein Elizabeth Stoddard Frances Ellen Watkins Harper Edith Wharton

She is most known today for her semi-autobiographical short story "The Yellow Wallpaper." Ulrich Baer earned a B.A. from Harvard and a Ph.D. from Yale. A widely published author, he is University Professor at New York University, and has been awarded Guggenheim, Getty, and Alexander von Humboldt fellowships.
