<span>The iron is a symbolic representation and a mirror of the struggles of the narrator as a mother. Tillie Olsen, the author of the book became a young mother during the 1940s. This led to her shifting her dreams of becoming a writer into taking care and raising her four children. <span>
</span>The story was focused on the struggles of working-class women who wanted to balance their family life as well as provide for their families. Ironing people’s clothes was one of those home-bound activities that women can do back then while at the same time help them raise their children.
The iron is also a symbolic representation of motherhood, and that it can be a tiring but also a fulfilling task that a mother can do. The story talks about humbling experiences (i.e. being a working class woman) that can still lead to values that are life-affirming. The setting of the story was during the period of nuclear war and economic recession and what women have to go through to raise their families and portray themselves as mothers in a struggling environment. <span>

Answer:
Sonnets are fourteen lines, as is sonnet 130; this allows Shakespeare to list several qualities of his mistress, then conclude with a couplet that turns the rest of the sonnet on its head. Sonnets have ten syllables per line, as does sonnet 130; this makes the poem read cleanly, with each thought given the same amount of weight in the poem. There are no structural oddities, like shorter or longer sentences, just the steady flow of beautiful poetry. Sonnets are written in iambic pentameter; this makes the singsongy feel of the poem as it compares each attribute of the woman with a quality found in nature
