What Members Thought

This book counts towards the Reading Woman 2019 Challenge task: a novella
Published in 1899, The Awakening tells the story of Edna, a young woman living in a stifling marriage. She begins to question gender roles and her marriage. In her New Orleans society circle, Edna crosses paths with a couple of young men who spark thoughts in her of how life and love could be different.
This was my first time reading this classic, though it has been on my radar for many years.
