Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: The Awakening is one of the earliest examples of feminism in literature, and the bookâs criticism of acceptable female social roles and emphasis on womenâs sexuality caused it to be received with a mixture of praise and criticism.
Set in Louisiana, Edna Pontellier is a wife, a mother, and a member of the Presbyterian Church, but has never felt comfortable being defined by any of these roles. Edna yearns for freedom, independence, and self-fulfillmentÂall of which seem antithetical to the life she has fallen into. When she departs to Grand Isle with her husband and children for a vacation, Ednaâs quiet dissatisfaction becomes more problematic, as she gets a glimpse of what life free from obligation and social constraints could be like.
