The Awakening: And Selected Short Stories : 9781494741501

Join us for a tale by one of the most adventurous nineteenth-century American writers. When it was first published, "The Awakening" stunned readers with it frank criticisms of the limits of marriage and motherhood. Edna Pontellier of New Orleans tries to find love outside a stifling marriage, rejecting her domestic role and the prevailing social attitudes of the South. Also includes eight additional short stories by the same author.
