The Storm is a gripping story about human desire, freedom, and the forces of nature. While her husband and son shelter elsewhere, Calixta is left alone as torrential rain hits her Louisiana home. When her former lover seeks refuge on her porch, a long-buried passion erupts inside —mirroring the fierce storm outside.

The modern voice behind this short story belongs to Kate Chopin, an American writer born in Missouri, in 1850.
