Charlotte Perkins Gilman was America’s leading feminist intellectual of the early twentieth century. *The Yellow Wallpaper and Other Stories* makes available the fullest selection ever printed of her short fiction, featuring the pioneering feminist masterpiece of the title, her stories contemporary with *The Yellow Wallpaper*, the fiction from her neglected California period (1890-95), and her later explorations of “the woman of fifty.” Together, these impressive works throw new light on Gilman as a writer of fiction.
