Michael O’Neill O’Neill1 ENGL 1005-310 Dr. R.V. Camacho 3/11/2015 Comparison Essay on; A Joy That Kill’s/The Story of an Hour Whether watching the video or reading Chopin’s story, consideration must be given to what was a “women’s place” during it’s writing in the late eighteen hundreds.

Virginia Woolf was a person that went through tough times and suffered break downs within her own insanity which were probably caused by her family life. Her Mother Father and Sister all dying within a short space of time, she claimed to be haunted by voices often masculine which would explain her constant attack of the Victorian male culture and imperialistic traits. What Virginia Woolf does so well is convey everyday reality into a form that is unreachable by so many authors. To The Lighthouse is a text in which in all honesty nothing much happens, but the way in which she describes this nothingness is genius and often somewhat offensive to some subcultures. For example her portrayal of Mr Ramsay who relies on his intellectual ability and Edwardian views.

Personally, I found so much of myself in Hazel to the point where I knew exactly what she was feeling, allowing me to understand her thoughts of desperation almost perfectly. The moment I closed the book, I realized something I had never thought of before.
