In “The Yellow Wallpaper," Charlotte Anna Perkins shows the narrator obsessed with the yellow wallpaper. She begins ripping the wallpaper in hopes of setting the women she sees being trapped behind the wallpaper free. In the story she mentions, “I am securely fastened now by my well hidden rope-you don’t get me out in the road there!” which shows that she tied herself on the wall so she couldn’t be forced out of the room. She feels that it’s okay to creep around the room as she pleases. This is where her second side of her personality comes out. The story states, “For outside you have to creep on the ground, and everything is green instead of yellow.” Which also shows that now this personality wants to be with the yellow wallpaper that represents her breaking through the barriers of her husband and other peers that do not have faith in her. She acts as she has two different personalities from becoming the women she actually sees in the wallpaper as herself. John is trying to get through the door as she then says, “The key is down by the front steps, under a plantain leaf” as she repeated a few more times to him he got the point. He actually listened to her, it’s the first time she effectively communicates with John and it shows she is finally getting through to him. Throughout the story John never listened to what she wanted or said. Now the roles have switched and John no longer has the power. She’s becoming more dominant in the fact that he’s crying for the axe to break down the door. She becomes calmer while John is in shocked that she has ripped off the wallpaper and is creeping around the room. She then says, “I’ve got out at last, in spite of you and Jane”. Here the narrator is clearly stating that she will no longer be bond by her husband’s constraints. I think Jane is the narrator's name, but that her insanity has driven her into another personality, so she has gotten out in spite of herself.
