Although she enjoyed only modest success during her lifetime, Kate
Chopin is now recognised as a unique voice in American literature.
Her seminal novel, The Awakening, published in 1899, explored new
and startling territory, and stunned readers with its frank
depiction of the limits of marriage and motherhood. Chopin's
aesthetic tastes and cultural influences were drawn from both the
European and American traditions, and her manipulation of her
'foreignness' contributed to the composition of a complex voice
that was strikingly different to that of her contemporaries. The
essays in this Companion treat a wide range of Chopin's stories and
novels, drawing her relationship with other writers, genres and
literary developments, and pay close attention to the transatlantic
dimension of her work. The result is a collection that brings a
fresh perspective to Chopin's writing, one that will appeal to
researchers and students of American, nineteenth-century, and
feminist literature.
