John hopes that the change of scenery and absence from city life will help the narrator recover from a “slight hysterical tendency.” John, a practical man, does not believe that the narrator is actually sick and decides that the best cure for her nervousness is the “rest cure,” a treatment promoted by the famous physician, S. Weir Mitchell.
the narrator is upset about John’s choice of bedroom for her. The narrator prefers a lovely room downstairs that has nice decorations and a window overlooking the garden. However, John argues that the room is too small because it cannot fit two separate beds. He selects instead the nursery room (as indicated by the bars on the windows for children). A big room, the nursery has windows on all sides and allows plenty of sunshine.
