The Story of an Hour

I liked this short story by Kate Chopin. She did a good job giving us a clear setting of spring time. I liked how the first sentence of the short story connected to the last sentence. The first sentence talked about her heart trouble and the last sentence she died of an heart attack. I think that Chopin did a good job of building a strong plot in three pages. Throughout the short story we found out that Mrs. Mallard was full of joy that her husband died because she wanted her independence. I really liked how how Chopin built up Mrs. Mallard being so happy because of her husbands death and then her husband actually being alive.
