The Awakening by Kate Chopin
4.0
“She was becoming herself and daily casting aside that fictitious self which we assume like a garment with which to appear before the world.” – Kate Chopin
i found this to be both a very captivating and relaxing read. i really enjoyed how chopin weaves the ever present metaphor of edna’s “awakening” and its ties to her breaking of patriarchal norms of the late nineteenth century with this normalized narrative of a woman’s infidelity. beautifully written.
