Kate Chopin - The Awakening
by Kate Chopin
The Awakening, published in 1899 was originally titled A Solitary Soul, is a series of short stories, depicting a young mother’s struggle to achieve sexual and personal emancipation in the oppressive environment of the postbellum American South. Widely condemned for its portrayal of sexuality and marital infidelity, today it is considered a landmark work of early feminist fiction.
