THE STORY OF AN HOUR

After reading "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin, I must say that this story was well put together. In this story, there were parts that gave great imagry to the reader. Such as, Mrs.Mallard noticing the delicious breathe of rain in the air and the peddler crying down the road. Also when Mrs. Mallard noticed the blue sky meeting with the clouds. I must also state that this story is full of metaphors and paints a great picture of how Mrs. Mallard actually felt on the day she found out the news on her husband death.

    Yes, this is generally true--but look into some of this imagery in detail, as well--what, exactly, do the metaphors suggest? what are some of these feelings and how does the imagery convey them? Closely examine the ambiguity of the imagery as that reveals and traces the development of Mrs. Mallard's iner conflicts
