Short Sotries
This is an excerpt from the paper...
The main characters in The Necklace, Eveline and The Hand are all female. Each of these stories details the life of a woman who is discontent. Mathilde Loisel, Eveline, and the newlywed bride in The Hand are all unhappy women due to their surroundings and/or family life. All of these short stories use symbolism to convey the despair of the heroines.Mathilde Loisel is very dissatisfied with her life. She has married herself off to a “little clerk” and believes she is entitled to enjoy the luxuries of the “highest lady” in the land (32). Despite her simple but loving husband, Mathilde is very depressed over her poor condition in life. We see that de Maupassant uses many symbols to convey her abject sense of despair over her meager surroundings. She suffers due to the “mean walls”, “worn chairs” and “ugly curtains” of her poor house, but these images are meant to symbolize her utter despair
