Now widely read  and admired, \u003ci\u003eThe Awakening\u003c\/i\u003e has  been hailed as an early vision of woman's  emancipation. This sensuous book tells of a woman's  abandonment of her family, her seduction, and her  awakening to desires and passions that threated to  consumer her. Originally entitled \"A Solitary  Soul,\" this portrait of twenty-eight-year-old  Edna Pontellier is a landmark in American fiction,  rooted firmly in the romantic tradition of Herman  Melville and Emily Dickinson. Here, a woman in  search of self-discovery turns away from convention and  society, and toward the primal, from convention  and society, and toward the primal, irresistibly  attracted to nature and the senses\u003ci\u003eThe  Awakening\u003c\/i\u003e, Kate Chopin's last novel, has been  praised by Edmund Wilson as \"beautifully  written.\" And Willa Cather described its style as  \"exquisite,\" \"sensitive,\" and  \"iridescent.\" This edition of \u003ci\u003eThe  Awakening\u003c\/i\u003e also includes a selection of  short stories by Kate Chopin. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This seems to me a  higher order of feminism than repeating the story  of woman as victim... Kate Chopin gives her female  protagonist the central role, normally reserved  for Man, in a meditation on identity and culture,  consciousness and art.\" -- From the  introduction by Marilynne Robinson.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780553213300\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.8 x 4.1 x 0.6 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BANTAM DELL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50246413222192,"sku":"Trans_9780553213300","price":338.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71wZMCu4svL.jpg?v=1761374203","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/the-awakening-bantam-classics-1","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
