We continue with the Reading Club meetings to analyze and discuss different works of North American literature, in a new format and with a new facilitator.
After a prior individualized reading, the works will be discussed in a group on the day of the meeting. we have Maria Willstedt as a moderator who will make a brief introduction, ask questions and animate the conversation.
For the month of November we will focus on the story “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
It is available on the internet en español but you can also read in any of the editions published on paper.
“Originally published in 1892 in a literary magazine, the work is based on the own experiences of its author, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a prolific American writer and pioneering feminist who repeatedly challenged the conventions of her time and the role that society assigned to women. . "She wrote this story with the intention of denouncing the perverse treatment she had to undergo after falling into postpartum depression."
