19969780679773207-2025Modern Library 1996. Hardcover. New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Kate Chopin</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Modern Library</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9780679773207</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 1996</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 140</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> When first published in 1899 The Awakening shocked readers with its honest treatment of female marital infidelity. Audiences accustomed to the pieties of late Victorian romantic fiction were taken aback by Chopin's daring portrayal of a woman trapped in a stifling marriage who seeks and finds passionate physical love outside the confines of her domestic situation.Aside from its unusually frank treatment of a then-controversial subject the novel is widely admired today for its literary qualities. Edmund Wilson characterized it as a work "quite uninhibited and beautifully written which anticipates D. H. Lawrence in its treatment of infidelity." Although the theme of marital infidelity no longer shocks few novels have plumbed the psychology of a woman involved in an illicit relationship with the perception artistry and honesty that Kate Chopin brought to The Awakening .</p> Modern Library hardcover

Set in New Orleans and on the Louisiana Gulf coast at the end of the 19th century the plot centers on Edna Pontellier and her struggle to reconcile her increasingly unorthodox views on femininity and motherhood with the prevailing social attitudes of the turn-of-the-century American South. It is one of the earliest American novels that focuses on women's issues without condescension. It is also widely seen as a landmark work of early feminism generating a mixed reaction from contemporary readers and critics. The novel's blend of realistic narrative incisive social commentary and psycho¬logical complexity makes The Awakening a precursor of American modernist literature; it prefigures the works of American novelists such as William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway and echoes the works of contemporaries such as Edith Wharton and Henry James. It can also be considered among the first Southern works in a tradition that would culminate with the modern master¬pieces of Faulkner Flannery O'Connor Eudora Welty Katherine Anne Porter and Tennessee Williams.</p> Wisehouse Classics hardcover
