À propos de ce contenu audio

 Dive into the profound exploration of feminine sexuality in The Awakening, a LibriVox edition narrated by eight talented female readers. This Modern Library edition features an insightful introduction by Kay Gibbons, who highlights how Kate Chopins groundbreaking work startled turn-of-the-century audiences with its candid discussions of sex and suicide. Defying literary norms, Chopin does not shy away from her heroines passionate affair with a charming son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she encounters on vacation. Themes of sensuality, the illusions of ecstatic love, and the isolation that often accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life resonate throughout this timeless novel. As Gibbons eloquently notes, Chopin was a pioneer of American realism, addressing truths that many were not yet ready to confront. To further understand the books themes, Project Gutenberg categorizes The Awakening under Adultery - Fiction - Women - Louisiana - New Orleans - Social conditions.
