To illustrate, the narrator explains the death of Mrs. Mallard at the end of the story, “-died of heart disease-of joy that kills” (Chopin). It explains how she died from happiness and love, even though it is constantly stated that she was so joyful at the idea of being free from her husband. Consequently, Mr. Mallard’s death brought Mrs. Mallard freedom and anguish, but his living existence gave her joy and death. Thus, figurative language gives the reader insight and a twisted representation of Mrs. Mallard’s feelings about her and husband’s existence
