The barber was facing his worst enemy and has huge decisions to make during this ‘oblivious’ visit. “When I recognized him, I started to tremble. But he didn’t notice.” Terrified, yet half-determined, will the author’s decision be worth the consequences? The author uses a lot of foreshadowing throughout the story. First, it’s unnoticeable. Then it becomes more and more obvious as you go on. The barber was sharpening the blades on the strop when the captain entered. He creates a mental picture of the enemy’s neck, throat, veins... “An enemy under ones roof,” “taking pains to see that no single pore emitted a drop of blood,” “Bit by bit, the skin emerged.” The author is making his lust for the open…

    Bruno Melofiro Prof. La Puma Due 2/14/13 ENG1121 Tu-Th 11:30 3. Write an essay arguing that “The Storm” is (or is not) immoral, or (a different thing) amoral. Kate Chopin’s story “The Storm” was written in 1989. However, this story was surely very much ahead of its time, as Chopin never found a publisher for it during her lifetime due to the immoral and graphic content of it. “The Storm” was not published until 1969, sixty-five years after her death. Although in…
