Analysis of “The Wall” When humans go through a very hard time we can have problems showing our feelings. Instead we lock them up in our self, and create a place inside us filled with hate, anger and guilt. This is also what happens to the main character in the film “The Wall”, Pink.

This view of modern love is hopeless, full of despair for both the man and his distraught wife. Intense simile and metaphor throughout “Modern Love” accentuate this grim view on the concept of modern love. The muffled cries of the wife are called “little gaping snakes,” showing how afraid and vulnerable the husband is to them. The man’s wife has a “Giant heart of Memory and Tears,” revealing the heavy, unused organ that the wife carries around within her, empty of the love that it represents, only able to remember the sadness to which she has been subjected. Then, the husband and wife are said to be “like sculpture effigies” in their “common bed,” lying “stone-still.” This metaphor includes grim imagery of two people “moveless” and silent, looking back on their “dead black years” together.
The Story of an Hour As the title puts it, “The Story of an Hour” is a story that happens in one hour. This story mostly revolves around one woman, Louise Mallard. The story begins on a very sad note especially in the eyes of a reader. Mrs. Mallard is said to have a “heart trouble” (Chopin 1), so her sister Josephine felt that great care had to be taken when delivering the sad news of her husband Brently Mallard’s death. Upon the delivery of the news, she starts sobbing and grieving then goes to her room to be by herself.
As can be inferred, her heart is a major hindrance in their lives, and is constantly needing attention. Another role the heart plays in the story is Mrs. Mallard’s liberation. She feels oppressed by her marriage and her husband, and wants to live for herself. When she goes to the room by herself and sits in the large, comfortable chair, she whispers to herself, “Free! Body and soul, free!.” This shows that she feels like her heart, her soul, is trapped by her marriage, and with the news of the death of her husband, she is first filled with grief, because she did love him, but later with glee when she realizes that she is free.
The very first example of this is when Tom leaves town without a word while Daisy is suffering immense pain and loneliness due to the birth of their first daughter. He is “God knows where” when Daisy needs him the most, and she feels “abandoned” in the hospital without him (Fitzgerald 16-17). This is one of the many disappointments during Tom and Daisy’s marriage, yet Daisy does not leave him. It is in this way that Tom Buchanan is abusive to his wife, and in this particular situation, Daisy suffers emotional abuse. Physical abuse, as well as emotional abuse, is evident in many scenes of the novel.
