A Doll’s House play by Henrik Ibsen shares many comparisons and contrasts with the short story â€Å"The Storm† by Kate Chopin. In fact, Ibsen’s play premiered at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen, Denmark on December 21, 1879. This play aroused significant changes in the attitudes towards 19th century marriages (princeton.edu). Interestingly, â€Å"The Storm† stands as the sequel to Chopin’s other short story â€Å"At the Cadian Ball†. Kimbel wrote in his article on Dictionary of Literary Biography, â€Å"Her first two published stories appeared in the summer of 1889† (Kimbel 1). In the short story, â€Å"The Storm†, and drama, A Doll’s House, both the authors contain different plots, share a similar subject where both the female protagonist commit clandestine†¦show more content†¦Nora exclaims, â€Å"Nonsense! He’s trying to scare me!† (Ibsen 1617). However, Nora tries her best to convince Torvald t o not fire Krogstad, but he does not listen to her. Thus, when Torvald discovers that Nora has forged her father’s name, he remained ready to disclaim his wife. Later when everything gets resolved, Nora decides to leave Torvald because he did not value her love for him. Rosefeldt wrote in his article on Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, â€Å"†¦Nora [also] abandons her children [along with Torvald] (Rosefeldt 1). On the other hand, â€Å"The Storm† has a different plot compared to A Doll’s House. The short story begins with Bobinot and his small son, Bibi, waiting at a convenient store for a storm to pass by, so they can proceed on home. In the meanwhile at Bobinot’s house, Bobinot’s wife, Calixta, noticed the storm coming and began to close the windows. When she closed the windows, she noticed Alcee riding his horse over to Calixta’s front porch, so he could get shelter from the rain. However, it started to rain violently, so Cali xta allowed him to come inside her house. The short story revealed that both Calixta and Alcee once had a relationship in the past before Calixta got married to Bobinot. During the storm, Alcee and Calixta share some intimate moments and have an affair. Once the storm passed away, Alcee rode off to his destination, and Bobinot and Bibi safely arrived home. Bobinot gives Calixta her
