“The Storm”
Kate Chopin
An affair to remember is definitely the phrase that comes to mind when reading Chopin’s works. Kate Chopin has been one of the authors that I have grown to respect, as she puts an emphasis on the maturation of a woman’s awareness of her own needs and desires. Being familiar with author’s works, I have perceived an idea of the story’s theme and plot.
The symbolism of the “storm” as it sweeps her former lover back to her arms once again and the artistic description of the passionate lovemaking is truly plausible. As the heavens cries and teardrops of rain falls to the ground can be likened to the drought of passion that has been moistened once again. The patters of the rain can also be likened to the knock in the heart of her former lover.
Although, I don’t commend or advocate extramarital intimate relationships, for adultery itself is an unclean matter - filthy, but Kate Chopin’s “The Storm” is most definitely a good read and I would recommend this to a close friend who appreciates a good read. I would also recommend "The Awakening" and "The Story of an Hour."
You have got point here I like how it's a storm that just passes by and then back to reality.She had an affair with her ex lover but after the storm was all gone she realized she wants her family and she treated her husband and kid very good after they returned after the storm.
