What happens when a woman dares to want more than what the world offers?

The Awakening by Kate Chopin is a bold and lyrical novel that shattered 19th-century expectations and paved the way for modern feminist literature. Follow Edna Pontellier, a wife and mother in Creole society, as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, artistic awakening, and emotional liberation.

Unflinching in its exploration of freedom, passion, and identity, this once-controversial masterpiece is now hailed as one of the most important American novels of the 20th century.
