Set in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast at the end of the nineteenth century, The Awakening centers on Edna Pontellier, an apparently happy twenty-eight-year-old wife and mother of two. But when a summer romance reignites Ednas appetite for life, she discovers that her conventional family, friends, and surroundings do not make her happy. Boldlyand to the astonishment of her husband and the consternation of New Orleans societyEdna begins to discover the joys of solitude, creative expression, and erotic freedom. A scandal and a shock to readers when it was first published in 1899, The Awakening remains a daring portrayal of a woman rejecting domesticity in favor of her own happiness and self-expression. This edition includes some of Chopins most studied short stories, including Desirees Baby, A Pair of Silk Stockings, and The Story of an Hour.
