En savoir plus sur le livre

Set against the evocative backdrop of the sea, the narrative follows Edna Pontellier's profound transformation as she seeks liberation from the constraints of marriage and motherhood. Initially met with scandal and criticism upon its release in 1899, the novel has since emerged as a significant work in feminist literature. Chopin's nuanced style captures Edna's journey toward moral and erotic autonomy, ultimately leading to tragic consequences. The book is part of The Penguin English Library, celebrating classic English fiction.
