The shock of hearing such tragic news is unexplainable to me. The only other way I can put it is by saying that there are a thousand things running through a person's head when they hear such shocking information, and when that person tries to speak or say something all there is, is silence. All those thousand things no longer make sense and cannot be said out loud into words that would make sense to others or even to that person, so it isn't surprising then when Mrs. Mallard weeps once she hears the news. She went to her bedroom alone, and did not want to be disturbed. After this, I feel there is another climax in the story. This climax is so important because it's different than what the readers are expecting to happen, because most people would think that this was the end of the story; that her husband dies and she weeps, and the end. But this is not the case. .
Mrs. Mallard stands in front of her window and stares outside. She notices the air, the rain, the street and the sounds of birds. When she describes these, she uses details as if this is the first time she is seeing these things. This is where the story becomes tricky, because her husband has just died and all she is thinking of at the moment is "the new spring life." What person notices such details of spring right after she finds out that her husband just died? The narrator also states that she was young, so it makes me think more of her heart trouble then, because young people don't tend to have "heart trouble." Something was coming to her, but she didn't know what it was. It filled her head, mind, body and soul but she was not aware of what it exactly was. "She said it over and over under her breath: "Free, free, free!" (KM 72). At this point in the story, the only thing I can think of is that she might try to kill herself, because of her husband's death, and this explains the "free, free, free," but that is not the case.
