In a novel,space is an essential element,because the characters need a special place to tell their stories.In recent years,more and more scholars indulge their interest in studying spatial narrative.“The Story of an Hour”is one of Kate Chopin’s representative works,which describes one-hour mental journey of Mrs.Mallard after hearing the death of her husband.This essay will interpret it from the perspective of spatial narrative and try to find its ingenious methods to narrate the story.
