The Chrysanthemums!


The Chrysanthemums was a really interesting story to me. I really like how detailed they were and how in depth they were with the personalities.  Elisa was my favorite character in the story because of how she began to feel. I am definitely on her side because she felt that women should not be put in a box. Being that this story was written in 1938 which is a totally different era from where we are now, she had to be really strong-minded to even think that. Her husband was trying to figure out her motive of why she was acting so strange but I felt that she did not even want to bring it up because she knew that he wouldn’t understand. I felt her pain.
