    The Wife of Bath is a complex character-she is different from the way she represents herself. Maybe not even what she herself thinks she is. On the surface, it seems as though she is a feminist, defending the rights and power of women over men. She also describes how she dominates her husband, playing on a fear that was common to men.

    My thoughts raced through my head. Why did I even attempt this; I knew I could not make it, why did I have to continue? I carried on walking slowly through the dark alley with rain pouring down on me, I looked up at the dark night sky and realized I wouldn’t make it through the night.
