The Blizzard

The tragic overtone of the story was definitely due to the slight yet immoveable obsticles that protruded in front of the protagonist's self-chosen road. The blizzard, an obsticle placed merely by nature which is a constant in our daily lives, drastically altered the destiny of the two lovers. Along with the blizzard were her parents and her long-lost legal husband. Although the parents and the unfortunately placed husband seemed to be manageable, The blizzard would have altered the future of her life with Vladimir regardless of the other obsticles.
