I love Kate Chopin's short stories for their concentrated symbolism and layers of messages beneath the text.
Poignant and inventive -- a short story that leaves a lot to think about.
Wow!
" There would be no one to live for during those coming years; she would live for herself. 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. A kind intention or a cruel intention made the act seem no less a crime as she looked upon it in that brief moment of illumination. "

We've had historians saying they were best friends, and now we have doctors saying she died of the joy that kills.

Chopin is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine!
"But she saw beyond that bitter moment a long procession of years to come that would belong to her absolutely."
Lovely, brief story.
