In our contemporary culture, we often take for granted that we have a sense of self separate from our role in our families, communities, etc., but Edna in Kate Chopin’s The Awakening seems to discover in her late twenties that gap between her self-perception and how others view her.  Identify places in the novel where Edna becomes conscious of this gap and elaborate on the significance of her increasing self-awareness. You must use textual support/quotations. 

No outside research is required for this essay; if you choose to consult other resources like Spark Notes, etc., you *must* cite these at the end of the paper. (Otherwise, the paper is considered plagiarized and may receive a zero.)
