Today’s episode is going to be a bit unusual. Yes, we’ll still be looking at The Awakening, but examining more its historical context than its story – seeing where and how the novel fits on a social and political timeline. So, please, pull up a chair by the fire, and let’s continue our discussion of Kate Chopin’s The Awakening.
