In Virginia Woolf’s ” The Death of the Moth, ” the author observes a moth while he was flying energetically until he felt tired and he died peacefully. Through the actions of the moth, Woolf shows the reality of how humans forget the meaning of life and face regrets at the time when death comes.
More precisely, the tone in the beginning toward the moth as happy to pathetic, the symbol of the window that presents a fence, and the metaphor of the moth as life itself, all of which end up representing the existence of a human being.
