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. |

Well, it sort of foreshadows that the children are not Edna's main priority in life. She tells Mme Ratignolle that she would never give 'herself' to the children. In the end, she finds herself when she is overwhelmed by the ocean, and she does not leave it for her children. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I think the ending was fit, and Chopin prepared the reader for such an ending.
