Kate Chopin's short story "The Story of an Hour" is about the character of Mrs. Mallard and how she develops as a woman, depicted through the news of her husband's death. The short story deals with themes of gender, freedom, repression, identity, self-discovery, etc.
When Mrs. Mallard heard of the news of her husband's death, she did not react like a normal woman whose husband had just died would have reacted. Rather, she went into another room and stayed there, thinking of the freedom she's just been given. The narrator uses the words <em>"open"</em>, <em>"new spring of life"</em>, <em>"delicious breath of rain"</em>, etc. which all exude a positive attitude rather than the expected gloomy reaction or observation for someone who's just lost a loved one.
