Book Review: The Awakening (Chopin)
Have I read this before: I thought I had when I started it, but the story ended up not being at all familiar, haha, so maybe not.
Review: I really liked the characters in this book. You really get an impression of Edna’s conflicting thoughts about conforming and not conforming to societal standards (though it’s clear what she really wants to do), and it’s very realistic how her thoughts change depending on who she’s around. I also like how Leonce (her husband) is basically non-existent in the novel. He’s there and he’s mentioned, but that’s about it. He’s like the least developed character, haha.
Favorite Part: The ending. I loved the peaceful release of it.
Rating: 5/10
