Who enjoys Kate Chopin? I realize there is a topic on The Awakening, but that wasn't very popular. Maybe other people enjoy other short stories by her?

I find her style so unique and beautiful. It's deep and romantic... mmmm <3!

If you sort of enjoy Hawthorne (haha), I would suggest looking up some of her short stories and reading them more than once. They are all so tricky and awesome.

^same here. I ultimately thought that Edna and Nora from Ibsen's A Doll's House were just selfish. I mean really, couldn't they just suck up their "horrible" lives and stay there for the sake of their children?

I'm not saying that I disliked Chopin's style. I love her style and I enjoy reading her short stories as well. Some of them are very romantic and elegant. I just could not really admire Edna in The Awakening.
