The awakening and selected stories



A daring novel of a woman's sexual and spiritual rebirth. When it was published in 1899 charges of sordidness and immorality consigned this classic into initial obscurity and irreparably damaged its author's literary and social reputation.

Through careful, subtle changes of style, Chopin shows the transformation of Edna Pontelliet, young wife and mother who -with tragic consequences- -refuses to be caged by married and domestic life and claims for herself moral and erotic freedom.
