In isolation women couldn't even read, paint, write they needed to be completely without any interest or stimuli
The narrator is a woman who has been put into isolation to "cure" her (something that the author herself went through and was almost driven mad). All she has is a yellow wallpaper in the room she is locked in.
Ah you love Buffy too!
Sounds like it could be a very powerfully written book. Sparked my interest, will definitely read this.
