In the spring of 1865, the bloody saga of America's Civil War finally comes to an end after a series of increasingly harrowing battles. President Abraham Lincoln's generous terms for Robert E. Lee's surrender are devised to fulfill Lincoln's dream of healing a divided nation. But one man and his band of murderous accomplices are not appeased....

Historia4 out of 5 stars 154
Kate Chopin's novel The Awakening, published 1899, drew a storm of criticism for its "shocking, morbid, and vulgar" story and quickly went out of print. The novel was not resurrected until the 1950s, when participants in the growing women's movement recognized its importance. Today, The Awakening is among the most-read American novels in colleges and universities and is considered an early example of American realism.

Slow at start, but picks up
Revisado: 09-26-15
Where does The Awakening rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This book is about a 2 or 3 in desire to turn on the iphone and listen.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
The begining was tedious and rather boring.
What does Walter Zimmerman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I listen while I multi-task my life. I wouldn't have read this book in text.
