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

"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!"

Explanation:

The book tells, in first person, the story of a person forced to confinement by her husband and doctor, who tries to cure her of a nervous depression. Forbidden to make any physical and mental effort, the character mocks the romantic idea that a haunted house brought romantic and rapturous happiness, as in many books. What happens is that she becomes obsessed with the wallpaper of her bedroom, and at last goes crazy.

Long read as a simple tale of gothic horror, The yellow wallpaper was rediscovered in the 1970s by a new generation of feminist theorists and has been studied in more depth ever since. The plot of the work was inspired by experiences of the author herself, who in the 1880s underwent a treatment similar to that of her character - prescribed by the famous "doctor of nerves" S. Weir Mitchell.
