~ Collector’s Edition ~ Laminated Hardback with Jacket ~Trapped in a world that expects her to be nothing more than a dutiful wife and mother, Edna Pontellier feels an irresistible pull toward something more-something untamed and entirely her own. As she drifts through the shimmering waters of the Gulf and the intoxicating pull of forbidden desires, she begins to unravel the quiet rebellion stirring within her. The rules of society, love, and identity tighten around her, but Edna refuses to shrink beneath them. With each step toward freedom, she discovers just how high the cost of awakening can be.When The Awakening was published in 1899, its bold exploration of female independence and desire shocked readers and nearly ended Kate Chopin’s career. At a time when women were expected to embrace domesticity without question, Edna Pontellier’s defiance of societal norms was both radical and unsettling. Though condemned in its time, the novel later became a cornerstone of feminist literature, praised for its unflinching portrayal of a woman’s struggle for selfhood. Today, it stands as a groundbreaking work that challenged the boundaries of gender, identity, and personal freedom.
