Throughout history women have pioneered their way into occupations that were once occupied solely by men. Not surprisingly, many achievements have come from women challenging and stepping out of their expected social roles. Today most women are free to voice their opinion and express themselves in every aspect of their lives, including their marriage. It was not long ago when women were deprived of this freedoms.

In the end of each novel, both protagonists are revealed to be lying to other characters; however, though both lie, the two lies are completely different from one another. In the first story “The Summer People”, the lie told by the protagonist Fran is harmful and cruel, but in the second short story “Origin Story”, the lie told by the protagonist Bunnatine is meant to protect someone she cares about. In the end, Link creates two different perspectives for the reader as to whether lying is bad or good within her two short stories “Origin Story” and “The Summer People” by utilizing plot, character development, and imagery.
He showed them the scares on his hands and feet. He said to them, "This is

I hug her knowing that this will be our last. Tears are streaming uncontrollably down my cheeks, staining her shirt. I'm not ready to say goodbye. I don't understand why this is happening. Out all of the 7.28 billion people in this world, why did it have to be her?
What happens when we just hear one anecdote about a specific circumstance? In the event that we just find out about people, place or circumstance from one perspective, we risk accepting one experience as every bit of relevant information. We confront the risk of a solitary story. The “Danger of a Single Story”, a 2009 TED Talk by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, a young Nigerian author, uses a powerful tool, which is personal experience, to express how one judgment can be untrue. Adichie claims that just one story is big enough to leave a race, ethnicity, or person with a wrong impression from society. I definitely agree with Adichie’s point of view because even I have been judged, and even though it may seem that falling for a single story is impossible to many it happens quite often.
Because of Mrs. Mallard's heart condition, everyone basically takes care of her very carefully. When her sister and family friend find out that Mr. Mallard got killed in an accident, they take time to tell Mrs. Mallard that her husband died.

Dumbfounded would be an understatement in this context in the de-scription of Karsen’s mood. Visibly confused and staring at them, she kept wondering how she got here in the first instance. Meeting Donovan, befriending Donavan, the kidnapping and the traveling through a timeline all seemed incredible and yet fascinating to her. If Karsen hadn’t stepped through a mirage into a clearly futuristic world, she would have thought they were crazy. As it was, she had little choice but to assume that if she wasn’t dreaming the whole thing, Donovan and the Professor were telling the truth.
The short story ‘The Story of an Hour’, by Kate Chopin (1894), is interesting for a number of reasons. Perhaps chief among these is the strong feminist themes that resonate from the story, which are particularly striking given that it was published at the end of the 19th century, long before feminism had become a commonplace in Academia or mainstream intellectual life. This paper will argue for a strong feminist reading of the story, one that attempts to do justice to its subtle complexities and possible ambiguities.
