The Story of an Hour
The account statement I chose for this assignment is The Story of an Hour by Kate Chopin, written in 1984, lived in the height of the Victorian Era and was a first-hand witness to the suppression women endured and accepted in the late nineteenth century. This story grabs readers emotions from the start, the range of emotions is felt by the main charter Louise mallard, and this really captured my attention. I empathise Mrs. Mallard as a weak and fragile woman who has suffered from marrow trouble.
As she learns about her husbands demise she be musters sad, with a paralyzed inability to
accept its significance(Chopin Chp 2). She overcomes the feeling organism sad and replaces it with
the feeling of joy. Mrs. Mallard realizes that her husbands death should not be seen as suffering, but as an kick the bucket along of freedom and excited that she could live for herself. As the spring and spend days were approaching, a feeling that her life would be her own, gave her a contentment that she had not felt since the news of her husbands death. Although she realized that her husband loved her, at times for her however she loved him-sometimes, often she had not (Chopin Chp 2).




As I see in the The Story of an Hour, Louise Mallard and Kate Chopins lives are real similar and ironic. Louises life began once she came to the realization that she could live for herself. During this bit she felt true joy and freedom, but her life stop abruptly as her husband walked through the threshold. Like Mrs. Mallard, Chopins writing career began once her husband died. When she began expressing her feminist views, the critics walked through the door and her life as a writer was over.
