The speaker's relationship with her husband had to go over a few changes.

Situational irony is used in both O’Henry’s “The Ransom of Red Chief” and “The Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant but the effect of the techniques on the tone of each story is very different. In O’Henry’s story, the protagonist, Red Chief, is being kidnapped by two criminals, Bill and Sam. There are many ironic events that occur in the story. For example, the reader expects Red Chief to want to go back home to his family but instead, he is having the time of his life. As hard as Bill tries, he cannot even send him home. Bill utters to Sam, “‘I showed him the road to Summit and kicked him about eight feet nearer there at one kick’” (6). This is comical because it is using a literary technique known as slapstick comedy. The reader can imagine Bill swinging his leg and kicking Red Chief all the way back to Summit. Another example of situational irony in the story is that the reader would expect that Red Chief to be scared but what is actually happening is that Bill is terrified. While speaking with Sam, Bill complains about Red chief yet again, “‘I’ve stood by you without batting an eye ...

“The story of an hour” is a short story written by Kate Chopin on 1894. It narrates the story of a woman called Louise who was married to a man called Brently Mallard. A friend of Mr. Mallard arrived to the house afraid of telling her some terrible news about her husband. Apparently he was involved on a train crash and this friend knew about the ill heart condition of Mrs. Mallard. Both her sister and her husband’s friend were aware that the news about Brently’s death could be mortal for Louise, and they did not know how to tell her the outcome of this terrible accident.
She loved her husband and respected the man but she realizes that there is much more to happiness and life itself than just getting by. She looks to the future with new life and hope thinking that these things are attainable to her for the first time. As a reader you are never told what her relationship is like so you could ask yourself if what you have done in a relationship could make someone feel suffocated. Even if I was to die today what would those around me feel in their hearts. Would they feel released from bondage, or feel as if a part of them was gone.
Irony is when the most unlikely and opposite thing that can occur in a situation takes place. In literature, irony plays a major role in evolving a story onward and deepening its meaning. For instance, in the short story “Trifles” by Susan Glaspell, there are quite a few examples of irony that completes the understanding of the short story as a whole. Trifles is about a farmer, John Wright, who has been murdered in his sleep one night by a stringing a rope around his neck that killed him.
