Kerfol is particularly fascinating to me because it is in France, and as I wrote before, Edith Wharton is a fan of all American writers. This premise is reminiscent of other ghost story: Kerfol (which means "crazy house" in Breton language) is a magnificent isolated, collapsing castle of Brittany, its owner wants to sell it I thought "song" narrator could not see the guardian of this place, but saw a variety of strange silent dogs. When I returned to the people who led him to Kerfol, he was tried by the wife of the king's wife Anne de Barrigan in the early eighteenth century. The following is very similar to the early days of my novel "Revolutionary Hostess" Gabriel de Montserrat heroine. But when I wrote this article, I have never seen Kerfol ... these two young women are poor aristocratic women, elders, elders, older men, unexplainable Treat them with cruelty
Edith Wharton's "Kerfol" is a ghost story that hides the deeper meaning. It is a social commentary on the role of gender in the late 19th and early 20th century. As the story evolved, an unknown narrator went to Kerfall with the intention of buying property. Upon arrival, he met a group of silent dogs who later discovered that they were ghosts of their former self. By reading the history of the house, he learned that his owner was beaten to death by a supernatural creature and his wife was tried for his death. The date between a woman and a lover can be used as a crime scene, but eventually a woman is sentenced to live the rest of her life at the lonely house of life and marriage. This is a perception of oppression that a woman feels on that day, that suppression that its personality can not escape from his prison.
