Katherine O'Flaherty (1850-1904), known by her married name Kate Chopin, was an American author of short stories and novels. Her works appeared in literary magazines and popular American periodicals of the day, including Vogue and The Atlantic. In 1899, her second novel, The Awakening, was published to much outrage and harsh criticism based upon moral, rather than literary, standards.

“Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband’s death.” American short-story writer Kate Chopin’s tale “The Story of an Hour” was first published in Vogue in 1894 and has endured to become one of her most beloved works. Upon learning of her husband’s death, Louise Mallard considers how this fateful event will change her life, meditating on the ideas of loss, freedom, and the bounds of marriage. “The Story of an Hour” was brought to life by Tina Rathbone as a part of the PBS anthology series American Playhouse. Be it mystery, romance, drama, comedy, politics, or history, great literature stands the test of time.

自由启蒙的代价往往是承受更大的痛苦
评分精心设计的故事,内心细节描绘也精彩,但说实在不太苟同这么强烈的女性意识,整个短篇透露着布道说教的气味。也许现在时代不一样了,女性已不需要以那样极端的姿态来反抗,对于我而言,更重要的是人类共同面对的困境,也许这是我不愿接近女性主义研究的原因。
评分能写好超短篇的人才是真正的大作家。相比用一本书的篇幅去说一个故事,超短篇除了需要把故事情节交代清楚,还需要有一个足够让人赞叹和回味的高潮,而这些都出现在两页纸里。凯特肖邦这个这篇真的绝了。
评分我会伤心因为失去丈夫;但是逝者已矣,我也会好好计划未来,马上恢复意识
