Paper Summary:

This essay analyzes Chopin's "The Awakening," and attempts to understand the ending. After seeming to achieve her goal of freedom from social obligations, Edna drowns herself. This paper will consider how her suicide is the author's way of expressing a double bind for people who seek freedom. This paper examines Edna's different relationships in order to understand how her freedom is both possible and impossible, so that at the end her choice of death can indicate an understanding of her conflict.
