The Yellow Wallpaper was first published in January 1892. It is regarded as an important early work of American feminist literature, illustrating attitudes in the 19th century toward women's physical and mental health. The story is a collection of diary entries written by Jane whose physician husband has confined her to the upstairs bedroom of a house he has rented for the summer. The Yellow Wallpaper has been interpreted as a condemnation of the paternalism of the 19th-century medical profession.

A Black vampire prince with glowing gold eyes. A white, ash-blond werewolf with a sharp tongue and a body built for sin. They were never supposed to touch. But one glance turns into one kiss. Then it's hands, teeth, and heat they can't escape. And a prophecy that could burn their whole world down. Omari Vale was born to rule – powerful, composed, and bound to a future he didn't choose. Ryker Thorne was born to run – wild, unclaimed, and dangerous in ways even he doesn't fully understand.

The art of writing a short story can be barely noticed by a reader or listener - such is the quality with which they are usually written.

In Volume 2 we bring you the classics 'The Yellow Wallpaper' by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and 'Roman Fever' by Edith Wharton.

Unique to this title is a study of the themes present in Herland. Herland is a utopian novel from 1915, written by feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman, in which exists an isolated society composed entirely of women, who reproduce via parthenogenesis (asexual reproduction).

Behind bars, time moves differently. Every moment stretches, every memory lingers, and every word carries the weight of survival. 21 Bars: Poetry from the Inside is an unapologetic, rhythmic journey through incarceration, self-reflection, and redemption. If you appreciate the unfiltered storytelling of Tupac Shakur, Langston Hughes, or Maya Angelou, this book will resonate deeply. These poems strip away pretense and dive headfirst into the realities of confinement—the regrets, the revelations, the hope that refuses to die.
