11. Write an essay about Kate Chopin’s “The Story of an Hour” analyzing Mrs. Mallards character. Your essay should be clear, concise, and grammatically correct.
In Kate Copin’s “The Story of an
Hour” Mrs Mallard is a character full of ambiguities who is happiest for
herself is stronger upset about the loss of her husband’s life. Firstly, Mrs. Mallard initially tries to fight
back her ironic feelings of happiness in her room after being told of her husband’s
death. Secondly, Mrs. Mallard accepts
that she is happier for freedom from her husband. Lastly, the interactions of
Richards and Josephine with Mrs. Mallard are indicative that Richards and
Josephine believing that Mrs. Mallard is going to be devastated which is to the
contrary.
Thanks Nicholas,
ReplyDeleteI like the clear thesis here and the statement of enumeration that provides a clear scope for the essay to follow. The words "firstly, secondly, lastly" make your writing feel a bit stiff. They're not wrong, but you should ask yourself whether they are necessary.
Be careful of your grammar. Your first sentence, for example, looks like there might be a word missing: "who is happiest for herself is stronger upset about" doesn't make any sense.
