The Awakening and Selected Stories (Penguin Classics)

$9.00
Edna Pontellier, a young wife and mother, refuses to be caged by married and domestic life and claims for herself moral and erotic freedom. Through careful, subtle changes of style, Kate Chopin shows Edna's transformation--and its tragic consequences. This volume also includes some of Chopin's finest stories, among them "At the 'Cadian Ball" and "Desiree's Baby."
