"The Storm" - Kate Chopin

Tonight I want you to read another Chopin short story, as this will also have thematic echoes of the story we read yesterday. For homework, I'd like you to read the story and find two quotes that you consider "5 Star Quotes." These are quotes that you think pop off the page for some reason or shed insight into an element of the short story.

If you're too lazy to cart around that textbook, here's a link to the story online.

Blog Discussion
In the comment section
, type one of your five star quotes. Explain why you think that quote is important. Don't feel limited to quotations that are barn burning discussion questions. Questions that shed insight into techniques the author uses are acceptable and encouraged.

One quote/comment, and at least one comment on what someone else has shared.
