The Yellow Wallpaper

Charlotte Perrins Gilman, “ The Yellow Wallpaper”

Explain the relationship between the narrator and her husband, John. How does this relationship affect the narrator?

Charlotte Perrin shows in the story how the narrator and her husband are with each other. From the beginning of The Yellow Wallpaper, the narrator shows that her relationship with her husband it isn’t the same ever since they moved to the new rental home. The narrator believes that since they moved in to the autrosury nursery, she gets that it has a hunted vibe in the house. In the other hand, John thinks that she is just exaggerating. Their relationship makes them both be blind. Because in John perspective he believes or perhaps even think that what she has is a lack of “self-control” and that she is just a little “sensitive” for that same reason she needs to keep taking her medication to come down. The narrator sees things differently. She knows that John doesn’t believe her, that her problem is her being sick and nothing else but that.

Moreover, this affects the narrator simply by not being heard from anyone else in the family. Her 

relationship with John it’s being affected by the same issue.  Instead of being helped  by him in

some other type way, rather than just taking pills, she gets comments that she wishes not to get. 

However, all of this falls back to John not having any ghost believes or the family. At the end, is all

of the narrator’s believes and the whole thing with the wallpaper. Over all the communication 

between them it seems not be there. At the same time John might think that she is over reacting,

and she believes that no ones is there for her.

The Fall Of The House of Usher

1. " A sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit"
2. Edgar mentions how on his way to Usher's house he "sense" an "insufferable bloom" going and spreading through his "spirit". Leaving a weird feeling and sensation in him that he can't describe. He just keeps going, but not having a good feeling about it. 
3. "The clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens". By Edgar saying " the clouds hung oppressively" it symbolizes unhappy, the view and the moment looks down or depressed. 
4. In the beginning of the poem, Edgar tells us that is almost night time, quiet, and a mysterious evening has lay on him. After a long day of traveling, the day is starting to look miserable, tired and scary. He also mentioned "soundless day", as an a quiet day, nothing bothering him, just a strange sensation, and the loneliness. 
5. It was a lonely day of traveling. A dark day, without any light no where near. A lonely route, everything looking miserable. Everything so quiet, the clouds dropping and the sky getting dark as black. 
6. A mysterious day, the sky dropping and laying on my way to Usher's house. Quiet, lonely and long route, that displays a depressing sound, with a dark light at the end.
