Title: Joy of Life and Death
Review: "The Awakening" by Kate Chopin is a great book. It deals with a woman who is confused about the way her life is going. She doesn't realize it but she is an extremely strong woman. She has to deal with the feelings she has for her husband and children and also for another man. She doesn't want to be tied down. She loves her family and regrets that she cannot give herself completely. A part of her awakening comes when she decides to swim in the ocean by herself. She has the feeling of pure joy and a certain amount of sensual pleasure as she swims farther and farther into the ocean. She begins to wonder why she had never done this before because it is a pleausre that is so enjoyable. In the end she gives herself back to the ocean. She returns to a place where she feels an unexplained joy of life and death.
