So the Selected Short Stories portion of Kate Chopin’s The Awakening and Selected Short Stories kind of sucks, huh? I guess an author isn’t obligated to write more than one inspiring work of early modernist feminism, but I was really taken aback by the difference between The Awakening and the rest of the book.
Of course, I didn’t get that Robert’s note there at the end meant he was never coming back until I read the Wikipedia article on the story, so maybe I shouldn’t judge.

In college I wrote a research paper on The Awakening. I must have gotten a little too militant-feminist, because on my paper, the instructor wrote, “A+!” Then below that, “You are very angry.”
That’s awesome! Haha. :)
I don’t think there’s any point in my commenting a) because if I’ve read The Awakening, I don’t remember it, and b) the above comment is brilliant and trumps anything I have to say.
p.s. In unrelated news, I’ve decided i owe you a package. It won’t be as cool as the one you sent me. But maybe I’ll include something from CHARLESTON.
