Set against the backdrop of a sultry summer on the Gulf of Mexico, the story follows Edna Pontellier, a woman grappling with her identity beyond societal expectations of wife and mother. An unexpected romance ignites her desires and self-discovery, challenging the oppressive norms of Louisiana society. Initially met with scandal and harsh criticism, this narrative explores themes of liberation and individuality, ultimately establishing itself as a classic that critiques the constraints placed on women in the late 19th century.
