Kate Chopin (1850–1904), a trailblazer for twentieth-century feminist writers, spent twelve years in New Orleans. In that city, she drew inspiration from the vibrant Creole culture, which shaped her profound insights and innovative storytelling.
This hardcover edition from the Dover Bookshelf features Chopin’s best-known novel, The Awakening, originally published in 1899, which boldly explores a New Orleans wife’s quest for love beyond the confines of her restrictive marriage. Although the subject might no longer be as scandalous today, few novels have examined the complexities of a woman’s illicit desires with such courage and artistry.
Also included are fifteen short stories popular among scholars, students, and other readers: A Pair of Silk Stockings, A Respectable Woman, At the ’Cadian Ball, Beyond the Bayou, The Kiss, Lilacs, Ripe Figs, and eight others.
Transcending the era she lived in; Chopin’s work serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring impact of courageous voices that challenge the status quo and inspire future generations.
