The truly scary thing about undiscovered lies is that they have a greater capacity to diminish us than exposed ones. They erode our strength, our self-esteem, our very foundation," Cheryl Hughes once quoted. In the short-story The Wife's Story by Ursula Le Guin, the wife who wasn't named believes that her husband wasn't having any bad in him, even a little. The wife loves her husband very much which made her unable to see the true color of his husband. At first, the woman talks about her husband and the reasons why she loved him but suddenly something tragic happened to the husband so it made a love story with a sad ending. As the story progresses, the woman presents herself as a simple wife and believing that there's nothing abnormal happening to her husband but suddenly this belief will make her sorrowful.
