Žltá tapeta (E-book)
$3.99
Charlotte Perkins Gilmanová krátko po narodení dcéry upadla do hlbokej popôrodnej depresie. Koncom 19. storočia lekári presadzovali pre ženy trpiace depresiou „pokojovú liečbu“ - boli odrádzané od akýchkoľvek fyzických alebo intelektuálnych aktivít. Netreba dodávať, že nasledujúce dva mesiace strávené v izolácii nielenže „nevyliečili“ jej depresiu, ale jej stav ešte zhoršili. Spisovateľkina osobná skúsenosť bola pre ňu inšpiráciou pre napísanie poviedky Žltá tapeta
