Answer:

Powerful Will and Blind Persistence Imposed upon Men and Women

Explanation:

Th Story of An Hour is about uneasy binding though marriage in which a young woman suffers and at the death of her husband she feels free, absolutely free as a person, entirely eased off all the pressure ans stress of marriage life. She thinks that "There would be no powerful will bending hers in that blind persistence with which men and women believe they have a right to impose a private will upon a fellow-creature". The protagonist, as her husband is dead, feels light, free of burden imposed upon her due to marriage, a relationship so heavily stressful and devoid of freedom.
