Emily instantly fell in love. She even bought him a silver toilet set with his initials on it to almost buy his love, but as time passed they had still not married. Once Emily found out that Homer was not the marrying type, she went out and killed him so he would always belong to her, “The body had apparently once lain in the attitude of an embrace, but now the long sleep that outlasts love, that conquers even the grimace of love, had cuckolded him” (Faulkner) as the narrator states.

However in the movie no character stayed in the room with the yellow wallpaper and because the husband had few jobs available he came home at a reasonable time at nights and they both went to sleep at the same time in another bedroom. Which showed that the wife was mentally well when they first arrived because she was able to write her book and slept at normal sleeping times. Likewise in both scenarios at the end of both the story and movie Charlotte became the lady behind the yellow wallpaper. As if she was destined to become apart of the mystery behind the wallpaper because in both aspects she never feared the horror she felt but became more eager to know what was going on. At the end of the day no matter if she was ill or grieving the author/director wanted us to know that she was still the woman behind the wallpaper even if she had to find out herself in the story or her husband had to accept it and place her there in the

A repressed women with a desire to be free and happy. The relation between when the woman in the wallpaper and the narrator when the woman is behind bars symbolizes the narrator and how she is trapped in this tiny room with a husband who controls her every word and actions. He undermines her in almost every way. For example the narrator says on page 590 “I am afraid, but i don't care- there is something strange about that house-I can feel it, I even said so to John one moonlight evening, but he said what i felt was a drought, and shut the window.” This shows how john undermines her fears as just a simple shiver from the window being open when she is trying to explain how she doesn't like the place because shes
“Both Blanche’s drinking and her endless hot baths suggest that she is attempting to wash away her past and emerge through a sort of watery purgatory.” Stanley, Stella’s husband, does not really like Blanche and accuses her of being crazy, which is an accurate description. Blanche even agrees when stating, “I know I fib a good deal. After all, a woman's charm is 50% illusion.” Early in the book Blanche starts to have an attraction to Mitch, Stanley’s friend.

Having no one to connect with she is force to focus on her self to the point where she is unknowingly projecting herself as the women be hide the wallpaper as a metaphor for her being trapped by the walls of the summer house and her own
I can’t imagine sitting in a room for long hours. I would go crazy too. In the beginning of the story the woman (narrator) thought it be good for her to get out a little, just see the world and do daily activities. The husband and brother thought it be best for her to stay in bed and never come out or see anyone. So she wasn’t mentally insane to begin with, living in a prison made her
