THE NECKLACE

"Madame Mathilde Loisel is blessed with great beauty but little wealth. Though she dreams of attending parties and balls wearing sparkling jewels she is married to a low-paid clerk of modest means. Her husband sets the story in motion when he attains an invitation to a party in a quest to make her happy"

The last sentence of the story is so tragic! I feel so sad for her. What do you think of this story?
