Helpful Score: 1

This book was written by a woman author in the late 19th century. It gives insight into the status of women and the culture they lived in located in New Orleans and St. Louis. People were scandalized by her views and criticized her work. She was before her time. The Awakening was a little melodramatic but portrayed the early beginnings of the women's movement for more freedom. The short stories were good.
