A metaphor is offered that serves as a reverberation of the author’s paradigm. Elaborating on the woman’s vision, “she is ... always creeping, and most women do not creep by daylight” (Gilman 10).

One of the first things most people think of when they hear conflict is fighting or arguing which is one of the definitions of conflict. Conflict is also heightened when people are not permitted to speak. There are a couple perfect examples of this in the book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. There’s the part in the book where one of the main characters George tells his friend Lennie not to speak and it ends up getting him into a fight and then when Lennie tells Curleys wife not to speak.
This tension has been building up throughout the play with Cassie hinting that Michael was not such a perfect husband as Marie believes. She tells Marie earlier; ‘sure he was hardly ever here when he was alive.’ Throughout scene four, Munro makes Cassie’s dialogue and hints more direct and blunt; ‘not much perfect about him’. She talks about men going with women for sex and claims ‘they’re all the same’ and says specifically about Michael, ‘all the times he made a fool of you to your face and making a fool of you with all those women.’ The climax finally occurs when Cassie’s hinting stops and she confesses the sordid truth. Marie claims
They have no type of respect or communication and when they do speak to each other the conversations becomes very nasty. I think Cherie reminds jack a lot of his wife, just the way Cherie carries herself and also the way she talks and treats jack plays a big part.

Harper Amaty Pitt starts off as Joe’s valium-addicted, sociopathic wife. A deranged sociopath that is sex-deprived and out of touch with the external world and reality in general, she recoils into her mental delusions and drug abuse. With the assistance of some of her companions and mother-in-law, she manages to liberate herself from her plummeting matrimony. Her desperation to be noticed and have emboldening contact with other human beings and conversation leads her to seek an affiliation just slightly better than what her marriage offers her. This is why she turns to
Myrtle Wilson is ashamed of her social position in life because she is poor. First off, when she is with Tom, (which is wrong in the first place) she is lifted of her under-class blemishes, even though Tom has abused her. When Tom and Nick go into town to the apartment party, Nick states, “Making a short deft movement, Tom Buchanan broke her nose with his open hand”(37).
