Bayou folk eBook Kate Chopin
This book was a MESS! It was a microfilm / photocopy of the original 1894 publication -- and impossible to read -- no story breaks, no page numbers -- and there was no indication on the website description of the book that the book would be in any unusual format. I really do not see any reason for Amazon to sell this version of the book -- I am in a class using the stories and at least 3 of us ended up with this book and we were all very upset. I was able to return it and am glad -- even the stories were not separated -- they were in a continuous line in the text.Product details

Bayou folk eBook Kate Chopin Reviews
The book arrived in very good condition and promptly after I had ordered it. I have no complaints! Thank you.
The book I ordered was advertised as new. The one that I received was filled with notations by a previous reader. I was unable to find any means on the website to report this mis-representation. I was cheated.
Very pleased.
Arrived in great condition as promised.
The realism of life away in a place where many people might never know from first hand experience was a wonderfull adventure. I do wish Kate had written more long stories.
Good variety of Kate Chopin’s short stories. The book was used but in good condition.
Kate Chopin is one of the best writers ever. She is worth reading for that fact alone. (Period)
Chopin's stories are culturally significant for a diverse and stirred up post Civil War Louisiana society. They are humanly sigificant. She is sensitive and fair-minded.
Chopin has been criticized for not holding 21st Century values and criticizing the racist/sexist/elitist world she lived in. However, she has done better. She has reported things 'as they were'. That's what makes these stories important. (If she were to be editorial, I'd wonder what she has to say about us. I doubt she'd see social improvement.)
Chopin was lost in obscurity following her novella, The Awakening. Rediscovery, awareness, and interest came in the '70's, catalyzed by the feminist movement.
I discovered Chopin in an anthology, Forms of the Novella (David H. Richter, 1981, Knopf), which contains The Awakening. (Buy Forms of the Novella next.) My reaction was interesting. Despite recognizing the greatness of Chopin as a writer, I was deeply disturbed by this story and doubted whether I wanted to read more. Learning of the feminist connection also made me uneasy. It made me think she had an 'agenda'. Curiosity prevailed. My trepidation was inappropriate. Chopin is the least sexist writer I can think of. She laughs at men & women, and cries with them, equally.
These stories are delightful! If you can read, read them! Even the ones that are fluffy and predictable are worth the read (see my first sentence).
