Question

Describe what Mrs Mallard saw and experienced as she sank in the armchair by the open window.​

Answer 1

Answer:

☞Because of Mrs. Mallard's "heart condition," the news about her husband's death was broken to her gently in Kate Chopin's short story, "The Story of an Hour." First, she "wept at once, with sudden, wild abandonment, in her sister's arms." Then she withdrew to her bedroom, where she sank into her "comfortable, roomy armchair." From the open window, she could smell the "delicious breath of rain" in the air; the tops of the trees were alive with "new spring life." From her favorite chair, she whispered over and over "free, free, free." Her pulse beat fast, warming her blood, and a "monstrous joy" overcame her.
