I would never have read The Yellow Wall Paper on my own. I didn't know anything about Charlotte Perkings Stetson, but now I know and do appreciate her and her place in history, contributing to a brodening of sympathies and understanding of her contemporaries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She should be more broadly knowned. Thanks.
"Yellow Wallpaper" was an excellent choice --and your narration definitely did the story justice. Creepy, indeed. I am looking forward to Red Chief, probably my favorite 'short' of all times.
You are a gem! Firstly, I have just finished devouring "Little Women" after realizing to my discredit that I had never read it. Secondly, this song is both stellar and prescient.

awesome
As to "Little Women," I am wondering whether a guy would enjoy that. (Perhaps we guys should be obligated to read it.)
I find that I enjoy all sorts of “masculine” stories…but I am not your typical woman! YMMV

Both were very fun to read.

Lovely! That makes my day.
I’ve always encountered this author as Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Where did you see her named “Stetson”?
Interesting.
It looks like Gilman was her second married name. She published “The Yellow Wallpaper” under Stetson, which is the name on my copy!
I read this one in summer school.
