Round and round and round - round and round and round - it makes me dizzy!Through watching so much at night, when it changes so, I have finally found out.The front pattern DOES move - and no wonder! It is so puzzling. Such a dear baby!And yet I CANNOT be with him, it makes me so nervous.I suppose John never was nervous in his life. But he did, and right across my path by the wall, so that I had to creep over him every time!From the text, we learn that the narrator's bedroom was formerly a nursery or playroom. He laughed a little the other day, and said I seemed to be flourishing in spite of my wall-paper.I turned it off with a laugh. As soon as it was moonlight and that poor thing began to crawl and shake the pattern, I got up and ran to help her.I pulled and she shook, I shook and she pulled, and before morning we had peeled off yards of that paper.A strip about as high as my head and half around the room.And then when the sun came and that awful pattern began to laugh at me, I declared I would finish it to-day!We go away to-morrow, and they are moving all my furniture down again to leave things as they were before.Jennie looked at the wall in amazement, but I told her merrily that I did it out of pure spite at the vicious thing.She laughed and said she wouldn't mind doing it herself, but I must not get tired.But I am here, and no person touches this paper but me - not ALIVE!She tried to get me out of the room - it was too patent!

I will take a nap I guess.And I know John would think it absurd. It makes me think of English places that you read about, for there are hedges and walls and gates that lock, and lots of separate little houses for the gardeners and people.There is a DELICIOUS garden!
The story is popular in Women's Studies classes and considered to be one of the first Feminist stories. There is nothing so dangerous, so fascinating, to a temperament like yours. I can't do it at night, for I know John would suspect something at once.And John is so queer now, that I don't want to irritate him.
He has no patience with faith, an intense horror of superstition, and he scoffs openly at any talk of things not to be felt and seen and put down in figures.John is a physician, and PERHAPS - (I would not say it to a living soul, of course, but this is dead paper and a great relief to my mind) - PERHAPS that is one reason I do not get well faster.If a physician of high standing, and one's own husband, assures friends and relatives that there is really nothing the matter with one but temporary nervous depression - a slight hysterical tendency - what is one to do?My brother is also a physician, and also of high standing, and he says the same thing.So I take phosphates or phosphites - whichever it is, and tonics, and journeys, and air, and exercise, and am absolutely forbidden to "work" until I am well again.Personally, I believe that congenial work, with excitement and change, would do me good.I did write for a while in spite of them; but it DOES exhaust me a good deal - having to be so sly about it, or else meet with heavy opposition.I sometimes fancy that my condition if I had less opposition and more society and stimulus - but John says the very worst thing I can do is to think about my condition, and I confess it always makes me feel bad.The most beautiful place! It sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it!
do you agree.
