Charlotte Perkins Gilman is very embarrassed to condemn the patriarchal society with yellow wallpaper. On the surface, her short film "Yellow Wallpaper" is a woman's diary that is merely experiencing spiritual collapse.

Janet Witalec's "Yellow Wallpaper" (1) and Rena Korb's "Yellow Wallpaper Summary" (2) support my hypothesis. They analyze the behavior and environment of the narrator related to this time.

"The color is uncomfortable, almost uncomfortable, the unclean yellow that is dull is oddly disappearing by the slowly turning sun. In some places it is a dull and unwieldy orange, which is pathological It is condition of sulfur "(Perkins P.688). Wallpapers will be best friends with the enemy of the main character. Until she finally releases it, the hero is still addicted to the yellow wallpaper. The wallpaper reflects the feelings and emotions of the hero, but the most important thing is the pain that she can endure. Faded yellow clothes belong to the hero of the night
