To all outside appearances, Edna Pontellier is a respectable married woman living in New Orleans with her fond, indulgent husband and her two young sons. Beneath Edna's smooth, graceful face, however, lurks a woman of passion, a woman who will not or simply cannot efface herself in the role that her husband expects of her: an angelic being who reveres him, dotes on their children, and obediently erases her individuality in service to the family's happiness.
But one lazy summer vacation and an apparently harmless infatuation will push Edna beyond this quiet, settled life, placing her directly at odds with society's expectations of what a woman should be.
This volume features additional short stories, including works that wrestled with such topics as racial passing in Desiree's Baby, infidelity in A Respectable Woman, and queer attraction in Fedora.
