Question

In which of the following excerpts from "The Yellow Wall Paper" does author Charlotte Perkins Gilman seem to mock the romantic belief in the supernatural?

Answer 1

A colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity—but that would be asking too much of fate!

There is a delicious garden! I never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them.

The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smoldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight.

Then I peeled off all the paper I could reach standing on the floor. It sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it!
