new post about Odour of Chrysanthemus

About this story I would like to say that it has many contemporary issues such as: alcoholism, loneliness, poverty, social pressure etc. During many years these issues have been presented in our society. At the same time, they have destroyed many people's life because human beings have not known how to face these problems. In addition, Elizabeth who is the main character in Odour of Chrysanthemus story, she had a deep pain because her husband had alcohol problems. She also had two children and every time they needed her attention. For that reason, she had not much time in thinking about her relationship or about herself. In my opinion, in many families we can find that problem. Where woman spend all their time concerning about their children, the home's chores, the job etc. With all of these problems women forget the real meaning of being alive. A good example of this is when Elizabeth's husband died. In that moment, she started to pay attention to her husband’s features and she could appreciate the beautiful he was. When I read that part of the story I felt very bad. Because people should loose someone or something in order to realize the important that person was for them. In conclusion, the pressure of life makes people lost their happiness like this story which poverty and alcoholism made Elizabeth and her husband forget their love.
