Edna Pontellier has a husband, two children, and a respectable life in New Orleans society. One summer on Grand Isle, she learns to swim, falls for young Robert Lebrun, and realizes she wants something she was never supposed to want: herself. Kate Chopin's daring novel scandalized readers in 1899. This edition pairs it with eight of her short stories, including "Désirée's Baby," "Beyond the Bayou," "A Respectable Woman," and "A Pair of Silk Stockings." For Edna, freedom may come at an impossible price. Beautifully typeset Tydbyts Classics edition.
