The Awakening
Feminist literary classic
The Awakening is Kate Chopin's 1899 novel about a married woman's sexual and spiritual self-discovery, controversial for its frank treatment of female desire and autonomy.
More broadly, an awakening is a moment of sudden realization or the emergence of awareness—religious, political, or personal: Her trip abroad was an awakening.
The Great Awakening refers to periods of religious revival in American history.
