The author doesn'toveremphasize the human and aesthetical values of Kate Chopin but, as a woman, shebelieves that all of us should pay a homage to Chopin for her contribution to widen thenarrow limits within which the feminine existence took place in her days. Enlarging the horizons of the human being, deepening the noblest sense of human life is always, she thinks, an ethically valuable enterprise. Chopin, according to the author, deserves great credits in this respect.The present article reviews some unfavourable critical opinions on The Awakeningwhen it was first published and analyses the main characters of the book, especially thatof the heroine Edna Pontellier.
