The Awakening

The Awakening, originally titled A Solitary Soul, is a novel by Kate Chopin, first published in 1899. When The Awakening was first published, critical outcry proved so strident that the novel was banned for decades. Now praised as a classic of early feminist literature, Kate Chopin's final work rejects traditional female roles and celebrates a woman's journey towards self-awareness. As the heroine, Edna Pontellier, awakens to her own desires, she begins to question her ideas about marriage, motherhood, society, art, and the nature of love itself. Chopin's pioneering novel served as a touchstone for many modernist works and is considered a landmark in feminist literature. This collection features Chopin's full novel plus a selection of her short stories steeped in the colour of her native Louisiana
