The Storm

This is a very controversial story for the time when it was written by Kate Chopin. The story is about adultery and infidelity of a woman to her husband. In here we can see why is it that its writer was criticized for it because in those times women were men property and they did not have the right to be disloyal not even with their thoughts. Calixta the main character has an affair during a storm while her husband was out of the house, and when he comes back she acts like if nothing had happened between her and her lover, for her that was normal and she was not regretful for her actions. The only thing she is worried about is the house. For me the wrong part is that if you do not love someone, tell him that you want to be free but never lie.
