Large Print Features:
Trapped in a world that demands her obedience as a wife and mother, Edna Pontellier feels an irresistible pull toward something beyond convention-something wild, liberating, and entirely her own. Drawn to the shimmering waters of the Gulf and the intoxicating call of forbidden desires, she begins to awaken to her individuality. The closer she moves toward freedom, the more the expectations of society tighten around her, forcing her to confront the high price of defying the roles she was born into.
When The Awakening was published in 1899, its daring exploration of female independence and desire scandalized readers and nearly destroyed Kate Chopin's career. At a time when women were expected to embrace domestic life without question, Edna's quiet rebellion against tradition was both radical and unsettling. Though condemned in its day, the novel later emerged as a cornerstone of feminist literature, celebrated for its unflinching portrayal of identity, freedom, and the cost of selfhood.
