Description
"The Awakening" is a probing psychological study of a woman who, oppressed by family life and her romantic difficulties, drowns herself in the ocean. It is also an examination of a particular culture at the end of the 19th century: the aristocratic society of southern Louisiana. "The Awakening" and Chopin's other short stories are standard-setting masterpieces.
