It expresses our feelings and we can even act out of what we think our heart wants. Louise’s physical heart trouble symbolizes her emotional problems in their marriage. “The face that had never looked save with love upon her” shows she had internal problems with her husband. She is also unhappy with the lack of freedom she has in her life and marriage. As the story continues the idea of her heart continues. When she finds her new freedom her heart races and pumps blood through her veins. Her new independence fills her heart. Then when she dies it is painfully ironic. The diagnosis of a heart disease seems about right. The surprise of seeing her husband was enough to kill her. The doctors said she had “the joy that kills”. Yet Louise must have felt extreme disappointment when Mr. Mallard turned out to be alive. We felt her independence and freedom whoosh out of her. We could feel her heart break in two
