i gave this book 5 stars as a reflection of my enjoyment of and newfound love for the awakening. the short stories were good as well, but i didn’t enjoy them nearly as much as the novel. désirées baby will always be an iconic one. i loved a point at issue and also enjoyed wiser than a god, to get specific.

The book is FULL of racist anti-Black slurs which kept jarring me out of the narrative.
Also I don't know if it's the story or the edition I read, but there seemed to be weird jumps in the narrative and things that weren't explained at all.
