Answer: “The Yellow Wallpaper”, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, is a symbol of the social strucutre that confines women to domestic submission.
Explanation:
The wallpaper appears simply unpleasant at first because it´s ripped and stained. But eventually, it´s formless design fascinates the narrator, who tries to find a pattern in it. After hours of staring, she finds a hidden pattern that shows a woman crawling around the wallpaper trying to escape. Finally, the wallpaper embodies the family structure and social tradition that the narrator herself feels trapped in, which will finally push her into an obsessive delusion.
