具体描述
The Awakening, as the authoress' last masterpiece, also sharing one fate with Hardy's last one, was finally recognized and even praised as "beautifully written" by Edmund Wilson, and "exquisite" and "sensitive" by Willa Cather. However, the praised didn't live as long as Hardy, who finally outlived the thrusts and cuts.
作者简介
Kate Chopin, was born Katherine O'Flaherty in St. Louis on Feburary8,1851, of a prosperous Irish-born merchant father and an aristocratic Creole mother. She studied piano, wrote poetry, and read Dickens, Austen, Goethe, de Stael, and the Brontes. Despite her free spirit--she was once nicknamed the "littlest rebel" for yanking down a Union flag--Kate grew to be a leading social belle, admired for her wit and beauty.
In 1870 she married Oscar Chopin. Matrimony did not quell her independence; she dressed unconventionally, took long unchaperoned walks, and smoked cigarettes. In their twelve years of married life, she bore six children, and upon Oscar's sudden death in 1882 she took over the management of the Chopin family plantation in Natchitoches, Louisana. She turned seriously to writing shortly thereafter, publishing stories in Vogue and Atlantic Monthly. She wrote a novel, At Fault(1890), Bayou Folk, a collection of stories(1894), A Night in Acadie, a second collection (1897), and her masterpiece The Awakening(1899), which aroused a national scandal for its "indecency." Banned by libraries, it even prevented her admission into the St. Louis Fine Arts Club--even though Kate Chopin was famous for her literary salon, which attracted distinguished artists and writers from all over the country.
Always sensitive to criticism, Chopin was devastated by the furor that surrounded the publication of The Awakening, and its harsh reception ultimately caused her to stop writing. When she died in 1904, she had been denied the recognition she desperately wanted and richly deserved.

评分我不知道该如何评论Edna这个女性，正如首页上有读者写到，醒了却还是困着的，所以呢，与其这样折磨自己，为什么不直接困顿着算了。 Edna的觉醒在我们现在看来完全是应该的，在父权社会下压制的女性开始慢慢的苏醒，意识到自己原来只是被丈夫视作了一个附属品，仅...

文笔很优美。但是女主最后的结局太忧伤了。
评分醒来了，却还是困着！
评分这书中文翻译是叫《痒》吗。。真是看得急死了
评分维基说Kate Chopin的这本书远远超出自己的时代以致作者和作品都未能被认同。但是今天，Edina的困惑已经不再是禁区，一个女性主义者甚至会一边读一边窥视自己的内心。
评分When Rober came into her life, her life-long,stupid dream was awakend. Her love for him, like the fire blazing her dark and withered world, led her to explore the unknown-self physically and spiritually. And his love, like the fuel to the fire, fulfilled and overwhelmed her hungry and tender heart, but it also destroyed it. Without his love supply, her self-built shelter was collapsed into pieces.
