My Wallpapered Psychosis

Reading "The Yellow Wallpaper" backwards illustrated the importance of reading a blog correctly. If one were to open a blog and read it top to bottom, they might be confused about the order of events and the development of the writing. In the case of "The Yellow Wallpaper", the reverse method of revealing the plot to the reader provokes their imagination. When I read the last entry, the use of the word "creep" tickled my fancy. By piecing together the tangled story, the reader's relationship with the narrator starts out saturated with insanity and gradually becomes diluted.
