"Désirée'sBaby" is a story of compound emotions. This is an interesting, fascinating, sad short story that reflects the experience of French Creole in Louisiana (Chopin). I used "sorrow" because it shows the degree of white hatred for black. The story talks about two families in Louisiana: Valmonde and L'Abri. The focus of the story is interpersonal; by contrast, in contrast, the lives and personality of the two families are delicately delineated. The story talks about love, slavery, racial discrimination.

Kate Chopin 's 1893 short story "Baby' s Father of Désirée" is a story of a abandoned baby raised by a wealthy French Creole family. Baby (Désirée) grew up and married a famous rich man. When their babies are born, children become obviously black within a few months. Her husband Armand took her and her children away. The last scene shows that Armand knows that he is black. Mark Twain's 1894 novel "The tragedy of Pudding Head Wilson" is the harsh irony of passing a ball to the south. The slave, Roxy, is a black man in 16 people and in order to avoid being sold in the river she watched her baby (1/32 for black) and the white baby she takes care of I decided to change. Tom, her young child who passed through the white, was promoted to a spoiled nobility, but when his real identity was called a slave child, he was born slave and he was born in a river It was sold to.

Kate Chopin's Baby of Désiré themes about identity, racial discrimination, gender, shame. From her Bayou fork series, the story is spoken by an unknown narrator of the third person, and after reading the story for the first time, the reader understands how important the title of the story is. By linking the baby to Désiré rather than Armand, Chopin reflected Armand's attitude towards the baby well. From the eyes of Arman, the baby is responsible for Désirée and he is not responsible, as children's ethnicity is mixed. As far as Armand is concerned, he does not want to join the Désiré or the baby, as a child's mixed race comes from Désiré, not from him. But when the reader comes to the end of the story, Armand's decision is ironic.
