The story "The Yellow Wallpaper" has a wide variety of interpretations. Some scholars write that it's a story about women and the suffocating roles of the time period (Victorian period, about 1835-1900).  Others see it as a tale of postpartum depression before there was a name for it, and even the possibility that the story represents fear of Asians and foreigners.
