Painful rejection notice:
>>“The Yellow Wall-Paper” was not iconic during its own time, and was initially rejected, in 1892, by Atlantic Monthly editor Horace Scudder, with this note: “I could not forgive myself if I made others as miserable as I have made myself [by reading this].”

@estherschindler: It isn't everyone's cup of tea. I've never made it through the thing, and I'm interested in it as weird fiction. It's like "Rosemary's Baby", an apparently classic film that I can't stay awake through. 🤷♂️
