"She was a grown young woman when she was overtaken by what she supposed to be the climax of her fate. It was when the face and figure of a great tragedian began to haunt her imagination and stir her senses. The persistence of the infatuation lent it an aspect of genuineness. The hopelessness of it colored it with the lofty tones of a great passion."
The novel «The Awakening» by Kate Chopin centers on Edna Pontellier and her struggle between her increasingly unorthodox views on femininity and motherhood with the prevailing social attitudes of the turn-of-the-century American South. «The Awakening» was first published in 1899.

Аннотация
The scene of " At Fault " is laid in Louisiana , and the creole dialect used by Thérèse and her friends is much more agreeable than the slang indulged in by the wealthy St . Louis women. The tale has a somewhat pleasant flavor, and the local color seems to be well preserved. The story ends happily in the orthodox fashion.
