The Book

I would be lying if I said I liked Kate Chopin's book. I tried not to offer any criticisms of my own in my essay because I knew I couldn't take an objective look. Edna Pontellier seemed like a boring person rebelling against the system in boring ways. But even a boring book can produce things of interest. The criticism did provide enough usable content for a community college paper.

I don't know why they made us read this when there's better-written and more enlightening feminist fiction out there. All that said, you're probably here because a teacher assigned this book to you. And I'm sure your school's library is trying to gouge you for it.

You can either get it as an audiobook, linked at the top of this page, or get the physical book.
