The Yellow Wallpaper

Charlotte Perkins Gilman, read by Erin Yuen. Dreamscape Media, , unabridged, 1 CD, 1 hr., $39.99 ISBN 978-1-5200-6743-8

Yuen leads listeners convincingly through this beautifully wrought 1892 short story. She begins the first-person narrative with the voice of a sensible if somewhat distraught young woman confined by her doctor husband to an attic room with hideous yellow wallpaper and bars on the windows. She is thought to have a nervous condition and is permitted no activity, including writing, lest it tire her. Eschewing melodrama, Yuen gradually changes tone and inflection as the weeks pass and the wife starts tearing down the wallpaper, perceives another woman behind it trying to get out, and finally descends into madness. It’s a short, intoxicating listen that merits more than one replay. (Mar.)
