I studied The Awakening' at uni and loved it! Chopin's work is beautiful and she deserves more credit in the literary world!

This is a well structured collection of short stories. Personally, I do not find 'The Awakening' to be the best of these. Yet, others, such as 'The Christ Light' are fantastic tales, short, yet with an often powerful moral subtext. Chopin creates dream-like landscapes and uses descriptions of local colour and language to re-create an image in the heads of the readers.
