Day 36: The Story of an Hour
by Kate Chopin from americanliterature.com
Since I am no longer doing the O.Henry Fridays, I decided to use Fridays to read classics from other authors as well. I will be starting with the list from http://americanliterature.com/twenty-great-american-short-stories of 20 great american short stories. I have read about half of them but will be reading the ones I have not read over the next several Fridays.
There seems to be a vain in older short stories that they end with a quick twist. This one did not disappoint.
