In 1899, Kate Chopin published *The Awakening*, a novel about a woman named Edna Pontellier who struggles against the social attitudes of the American South. At the time of its publication, the novel was widely condemned by critics for its frank depiction of female independence and desire. However, in the late twentieth century, the novel was rediscovered by literary scholars and is now considered a landmark work of early feminism.
