For Kate Chopin

wow i was wrong [4]

So The Awakening ended in a sad suicide. All I thought was ‘good twist’. Anyway, symbolism.

I can’t think of any examples of symbolism, but Kate Chopin uses a lot of pretty, metaphoric writing. She writes, “There was a dull pang of regret because it was not the kiss of love which had inflamed her, because it was not love that which had held this cup of life to her lips“. Most of her emotionally rich scenes are written like this; lots of adjectives and metaphors. The way she writes, i don’t know what it is about her style but it’s very easy to relate to her.
