The Awakening (1899) is a novel by American author Kate Chopin. It marks early feminism as it was one of the earliest American novels to focus on women’s issues without condescension. The novel centers on Edna Pontellier and her struggle between what is socially acceptable of mothers in turn-of-the-century American South and her views on femininity and independence.
