Question

Do you think the proverb pride goes before a fall is true in the case of madame loisel in the story diamond necklace

Answer 1

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall - It would be difficult to find an aphorism that better describes the fate of the main character in the story, “The Necklace”.In this story main character, Madame Loisel, borrows a diamond necklace from her rich friend, Madame Forestier, to wear at a ball hosted by the Minister of Public Instruction at the Palace of the Ministry. To her dismay, Madame Loisel loses the necklace, and she and her husband spend the next ten years paying back the loans they had to take out to replace the necklace, only to discover that the necklace was fake. Her pride plunges both her and her husband into abject poverty.
