As to the form of love, adultery and its tragic conclusion are also the central theme here. Her love is doomed considering the lonely situation of her life. The first-person narrative of a married woman in the letters, the story, is effective in the expression of distress and struggle of her mind. The letters themselves are an interior monologue, the expression of her mind. And the disorderly arrangement of the letters also contributes to express her anxiety and the strained situation of the story. This lonely woman is ready to accept everything -every conclusion, every torture, and pay the price of her adultery at the end of the story. Similar tragedies of love in The Wheel were discussed in the previous study.1 In the last stage of this series of interpretative studies, the central theme and structure of The Wheel of Love will be discussed as a whole.}, pages = {90--95}, title = {J.
