"Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin
In this story, I found some scenes that catched my attention by showing irony. In the "Story of an Hour"by Kate Chopin, a good example of irony would be when Brently Mallard was supposed to be dead, but it was a misunderstanding. Her wife was devastated with the fact that she was going to be lonely, futhermore she was waiting to die as well. At the end he appears to be alive and the one who ended up dying by a heart attack was her. To conclude,I think irony can be describe as believing something that really means another thing.
Invisible Cities
I particular liked this story a lot, because is something unique and different from other story.In the story "Invisible Cities" these cities contrast from modern cities by being fictional. For example, the author describes all of these cities by using his inmagination . In addition, real cities are created completely different as Armilla, Zobeide, Moriana, Ersilia, Thekla, Argia and Olinda cities. These stories reflect that as human we tend to be dreamers and create our own cities we would like to live in. Finally, these stories are connected to us, nowadays we increase our imagination by describing things we might like to change in the near future.
