The Story of an Hour

I thought that this was a very unusual story for having a title of an hour. It was confusing at first and at the end to try and figure out what was going on for the names got mixed up for me. I thought that Josephine was with her and that Louise was her name Mrs. mallards. It shows you what freedom would be like if you were not married to someone you love, but hate at the same time. She so wanted freedom that when she looked outside she smelt the rain coming in and could see that it was going to wash away the old and bring in the new. That spring was bringing renewal to live and that she could have a better life to do what she wanted to do. The ending was a bit for she did get her freedom at last but it took her death for her to find it.
