The Awakening & Selected Stories" is Kate Chopins groundbreaking depiction of a woman who dares to defy the expectations of society in the pursuit of her desire edited with an introduction by Sandra M. Gilbert in " Penguin Classics". When " The Awakening" was first published in 1899 charges of sordidness & immorality seemed to consign it into obscurity & irreparably damage its authors reputation.

Gilbert considers the issues explored in the novel & the stories collected here (including " Emancipation" " At the cadian Ball" & " Desirees baby") from their growth out of the feminist literary tradition of the nineteenth century to their place among other concerns of fin de siecle writers in America & Europe to their impact on contemporary feminist writing. Katherine OFlaherty (1850-1904) known by her married name Kate Chopin was an American author of short stories & novels. Her works appeared in literary magazines & popular American periodicals of the day including " Vogue & The Atlantic". In 1899 her second novel " The Awakening" was published to much outrage & harsh criticism based upon moral rather than literary standards. If you enjoyed " The Awakening & Selected Stories" you might enjoy Jean Rhyss " Good Morning Midnight" also available in " Penguin Classics"."
