American author Kate Chopin (1850–1904) wrote two published novels and about a hundred short stories in the 1890s. Most of her fiction is set in Louisiana and most of her best-known work focuses onthe lives of sensitive, intelligent women.
Her short stories were well received in her own time and were published by some of America's most prestigious magazines, includingVogue and the AtlanticMonthly. Her early novel At Fault (1890) was not much noticed by the public, but The Awakening (1899) was widely condemned. Critics called it morbid, vulgar, and disagreeable
"The Story of an Hour"is a short story written by Kate Chopin on April 19, 1894, and originally published in Vogue on December 6, 1894 as "The Dream of an Hour". It was first reprinted in St. Louis Life on January 5, 1895as "The Story of an Hour."
The title of the short story refers to the time elapsed between the moments at which the protagonist, Louise Mallard, hears that her husband is dead and discovers that heis alive after all. The Story of an Hour was considered controversial during the 1890s because it deals with a female protagonist who feels liberated by the news of her husband's death. In UnveilingKate Chopin, Emily Toth argues that Chopin "had to have her heroine die" in order to make the story publishable

Lo primero en lo que me fije es en la escritora, el cuento es de 1894 lo que te da una idea de como se trataba a las mujeres en esa época (digo marido y mujer no eranlo mismo que ahora, lamentablemente en esa época las libertades de las mujeres no eran las de hoy día).
Por tanto deduzco, ¿actuó con valentía? ¿actuó con egoísmo?
Yo no usaría esos términos,tal vez por que es una mezcla de sentimientos y emociones totalmente diferente a los que ella sintió.
Lo dice en el susurro “Libre, libre, libre” y en su pensamiento “Días de primavera, días de...
