What did The Yellow Wallpaper symbolize in the story?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The wallpaper unmistakably stands in for the narrator's imprisoning structures of family, medicine, and tradition. Wallpaper is a lowly and domestic material, and Gilman deftly employs this nightmare-inducing paper as a representation of the household existence that ensnares so many women.

What is Yellow Wallpaper's main point?

The narrator of "The Yellow Wallpaper" feels that the wallpaper is a narrative she must decipher and that it represents something that directly affects her. As a result, the wallpaper's meaning grows throughout the narrative. It is torn, filthy, and initially appears to be a "unclean yellow," which makes it merely unpleasant. The supposedly formless pattern, which intrigues the narrator as she tries to understand how it is structured, is the worst part.
