The Awakening

by Chopin, Kate

The Awakening by Kate Chopin is an important work. Published in Chicago in 1899, this is often hailed as a precursor to modern feminist literature. ⁠⁠“She was becoming herself and daily casting aside that fictitious self which we assume like a garment with which to appear before the world.”⁠

First Edition Identification

Chicago, 1899, bound in pale green cloth, decoratively stamped in dark green and red; top edge gilt.
