The story I've chosen ''Regret" is written by Kate Chopin, one of the earliest examples of modernism in the United States, famous representative of the feminist literary movement. She wrote about true feelings and insinuated that women had a sexual appetite and craved independence which made her stories taboo in her time period. It is thought that Kate wrote short stories because she was self-consciously experimenting with stylistic concerns as much as thematic ones. Though Kate was one of the first feminist writers, it wasn't her intention, she just wrote about life as she saw it. She had a different understanding of freedom and saw it as much more a matter of spirit, soul, character of living your life within constraints that the world makes.
The story ''Regret" also reveals a strong spirit of a woman's life.

Hello! My name is Oxana Khomenko. As for me, creating a blog isn't a difficult task and I hope that working with it I'll get a new experience.
From the given list of stories I chose "Regret" by Kate Chopin. I think that this short story will be intersting and informative as it's name seems to be quite intriguing.
