Kate Chopin's private papers by Kate Chopin( Book )
9 editions published between 1997 and 1998 in English and held by 1,570 libraries worldwide
"Kate Chopin, according to her contemporaries, was a "woman of mysterious fascination" - and Kate Chopin's Private Papers reveals many of the author's secrets. Chopin (1850-1904), author of about a hundred short stories and two novels (The Awakening and At Fault), also kept diaries, wrote letters and poems, translated short stories and articles from the French, and worried about her career. Chopin's newly discovered manuscripts, published for the first time here, reflect her dedication to revision and improving her craft; her manuscript account books show her meticulous control of her career and her pursuit of audiences. These papers illuminate the growth of Chopin as a writer, bring into focus the reactions of critics to her work, and settle a number of controversies in Chopin studies."--BOOK JACKET.

Kate Chopin. A critical biography by Per Seyersted( Book )
25 editions published between 1969 and 2000 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,388 libraries worldwide
After shocking the American reading public with The Awakening in 1899, Kate Chopin received not only censure for her treatment of the sensuous, independent heroine but also commendation for her artistic excellence. Deeply hurt by the censure, she wrote little more and was soon forgotten. In recent years, however, many critics have given new attention to the novel and to its author. In this volume, which has become the standard Chopin biography, Per Seyersted gives us well-deserved recognition to a daring and accomplished woman.
