At the sight of seeing someone with an exquisite profile, anyone would love to describe it. Chopin's detail's about the "color of crushed grapes" gives an image of a man who is in some way blushing or is just blessed with that special color on his face. Chopin describes him deeply only so the reader can see through the women's eyes the beauty of such a man that captured attention as soon as he walked in. "his dusky eyes glowed" is a contradiction within itself. Dusky means dark almost like a shadow with little light. In the other hand its says his eyes glowed. How can dark eyes glow? Chopin gives the reader a complete mystery to want to figure out how this man stare is. When Chopin uses "a magician's wand", this makes the audience dare to believe that a miracle occurred to this man. As I was reading, I strongly believe that this man use to not have this astounding look only until that night.

Kate Chopin uses Edna Pontellier to go in depth of a woman's thoughts about going past the limit. During the 1800s women had to depict the perfect house wife, mother, and daughter. Pontellier decides to make her own set of rules and does what her mind wants. Pontellier discovers the woman hidden within herself.

Quote 9
"As if a magician's wand had touched him, the garland of roses transformed him into a vision of Oriental beauty. His cheeks were the color of crushed grapes, and his dusky eyes glowed with a languishing fire."
