Analysis Of The Poem The Ending Sentence Of The Story

Page 170 2. The ending sentence of the story is ironic because, when leading up to it, it is established that Mathilde Loisel spent ten years of her life paying back debt. This debt, of coarse, being from having to buy a new necklace after losing the one that she borrowed from Mme. Forestier. The ending is ironic because it tells the reader that the original necklace was fake and that Mathilde Loisel had basically just wasted ten years of her life working very hard at bad jobs to pay for something that she only bought because she thought that she lost a real diamond necklace. 3. The third-person-limited narrator paints a mostly unsympathetic picture of Mathilde Loisel. This is established by diction and the narrators description of Mathilde Loisel s earlier life. As stated by the narrator, She grieved incessantly feeling that she had been born for all the little niceties and luxuries of living. I believe that the narrator does show a small amount of sympathy towards Mathilde Loisel a little later in the book, but I believe that the narrator really thinks that Mathilde Loisel got what she deserved by not appreciating what she had and were she was by doing very little work. 4. If the story was told in the first person point of view instead of third person limited, the audience would most likely feel a lot worse for Mathilde Loisel and her husband. Mathilde Loisel would most likely talk about hardships and how she had to give up many things to keep from going bankrupt.
