What a twist!! Chopin has written a great short story, in my opinion. In the beginning of the story Chopin foreshadows what the end will bring, but I did not catch on to that until the end.
Mrs. Mallard learns there has been an accident on the railroad and her husband has died. She can not handle the news and keeps to herself as she enters a world of depression. She tells herself that there is no reason to live. At the end there is a key in the door and her sister cries to see Mr. Mallard enter through. He had not been anywhere near the accident and now he is too late to see his wife. Mrs. Mallard passed away from heart disease. Now he will endure the hurt she endured without reason.
