In "The Happy Event," the title is ironic because it suggests a joyful occasion, typically associated with celebration and positivity, while the story explores the complexities and struggles of parenthood. Instead of highlighting the bliss typically associated with childbirth, the narrative delves into the protagonist's feelings of anxiety, isolation, and the challenges of impending motherhood. This contrast between the title and the protagonist's experience underscores the paradox of happiness often intertwined with difficult emotions.
