A fine novel, which presents a
woman's point of view and which
is enjoying a revival, is The
Awakening by Kate Chopin, first
published in 1899. The story of one
woman's search|for herself is
weaved into a reflective, sen-
suous texture of words and
images, , J *
Chopin's novel met with op-
position in 1899 and had remained
known only ho students of
American literature until the
recent ^increase in attention to
women writers opened The
Awakening to a larger audience.
Chopin's contemporaries found
the novel's treatment of infidelity
shockingly immoral and, con-
sequently, failed?;to evaluate its
literary worth. W
Today considered by many
scholars as the little American
classic which [introduced the
attitude of the modern novel, The
Awakening is the story of\ Edna
Pontellier, a married woman who
allows herself to fall in love with
another man. This event is only a
part of her struggle against
convention to discover her
essential nature and to refuse to
relinquish this \ 'self.'j $ offers an appropriate setting for

followed by calmness as she

novel's conclusion. \ 9f m
The sea, which Edna fears at
first but comes to love, serves as
a symbol of the freedom she
pursues. Symbolic in their
simplicity and smallness, the

an escape £ from*: her husband's
money and expensive
possessions .lijE? |
The sea and Pontellier's house
indicate the importance of setting
