Brait 1 Mike Brait Ms. Palazzolo ENG 4U1 1 November 2012 Inner Conflict Throughout “The Painted Door” and “The Lamp at Noon” Carlos Fuentes once said “Love can isolate us from everything around us. But in its absence we can be filled with the fear that something comparable exists.” In both stories, the love of a soul mate causes isolation around them. Ann, the protagonist in “The Painted Door”, and Ellen, the main character in “The Lamp at Noon”, both give up their lives to become farmers’ wives out of love for their husbands. This immense love for their husbands is the direct cause of the isolation they are experiencing. Both women crave attention and interaction with other people, which is the reason of inner conflict.
She had been receiving letters from her ex-husband saying "How are you and the boys? Bet they’re getting big," (1, Medicine River). The clear absence of the father has caused Rose to become independent and have to raise her children by herself, as well as support her kids with no financial aid from a husband, an uncommon front for a woman in a time where men dominated. In addition to the independence and self-reliance of Bertha and Rose, Louise, a female who lives in Medicine River with Will, possesses these same characteristics. She has found a way to succeed at a job in a time when it occurs very seldomly for women.

First examining marriage in Pride and Prejudice, the prime example of it in this novel is that surrounding the Bennett family who are not wealthy people, and there is nothing that Mrs Bennett wants more than to see her daughters get married to wealthy men. She presents this desperation at the very beginning of the book when she is eagerly mentioning the fact that Netherfield Park has been let, and she is said to be speaking “impatiently” when her husband does not return this eagerness. This is shown when she says “you do not know what I suffer”. This suffering may be as a result of her own marriage (which disappoints her) or the fact that she wants each of her five daughters to find wealthy husbands. She states in the first chapter that the “solace” of marriage is “visiting and news.” This explains why Mrs Bennett is so desperate for her husband to visit Bingley and find out more about him and to introduce him to their daughters.
