Synopsis "The Awakening and Other Writings"

Critically acclaimed as Kate Chopin’s most influential work of fiction, The Awakening has assumed a place in the American literary canon. This new edition places the novel in the context of the cultural and regional influences that shape Chopin’s narrative. With extensive contemporary readings that examine historical events, including the hurricanes that frequently disrupt life in Louisiana, this edition will contextualize The Awakening for a new generation of readers.

Kate Chopin (1850-1904) forma parte del reducido grupo de escritoras que empezaron a dar voz propia a la mujer en la literatura moderna y cuya valía a menudo se ha visto oscurecida por la censura o el escándalo. Completan el volumen importantes relatos («En el baile acadiano», «Una mujer respetable», «Fedora», «El niño de Désirée», «La historia de una hora», «Lilas», «Athénaïse», «Un par de medias de seda», «La tormenta») que ofrecen una panorámica completa de las preocupaciones y el mundo de la autora.
