Description:In 1969, Per Seyersted gave the world the first collected works of Kate Chopin. Seyersted's presentation of Chopin's writings and biographical and bibliographical information led to the rediscovery and celebration of this turn-of-the-century author. Newsweek hailed the two-volume opus"In story after story and in all her novels, Kate Chopin's oracular feminism and prophetic psychology almost outweigh her estimable literary talents. Her revival is both interesting and timely." Now for the first time, Seyersted's Complete Works is available in a single-volume paperback. It is the first and only paperback edition of Chopin's total oeuvre. Containing twenty poems, ninety-six stories, two novels, and thirteen essaysin short, everything Chopin wrote except several additional poems and three unfinished children's storiesas well as Seyersted's original revelatory introduction and Edmund Wilson's foreword, this anthology is both a historical and a literary achievement. It is ideal for anyone who wishes to explore the pleasures of reading this highly acclaimed author. AUTHOR BIO: Per Seyersted also published in 1969 Kate Chopin: A Critical Biography, which remains in print. He lived from 1921-2005 and was a professor of American literature at the University of Oslo.Wiser than a god --A point at issue! --Miss Witherwell's mistake --With the violin --Mrs. Mobry's reason --A no-account Creole --For Marse Chouchoute --The going away of Liza --The maid of Saint Phillippe --A wizard from Gettysburg --A shameful affair --A rude awakening --A harbinger --Doctor Chevalier's lie --A very fine fiddle --Boulôt and Boulotte --Love on the Bon-Dieu --An embarrassing position : comedy in one act --Beyond the Bayou --After the winter --The Bênitous' slave --A turkey hunt --Old Aunt Peggy --The lilies --Ripe figs --Croque-Mitaine --A little free-Mulatto --Miss McEnders --Loka --At the 'Cadian Ball --A visit to Avoyelles --Ma'ame Pélagie --Désirée's baby --Caline --The return of Alcibiade --In and out of old Natchitoches --Mamouche --Madame Célestin's divorce --An idle fellow --A matter of prejudice --Azélie --A lady of Bayou St. John --La Belle Zoraide --At Chênière Caminada --A gentleman of Bayou Teche --In Sabine --A respectable woman --Tante Cat'rinette --A Dresden lady in Dixie --The story of an hour --Lilacs --The night came slowly --Juanita --Cavanelle --Regret --The kiss --Ozème's holiday --A sentimental soul --Her letters --Odalie misses Mass --Polydore --Dead men's shoes --Athénaïse --Two summers and two souls --The unexpected --Two portraits --Fedora --Vagabonds --Madame Martel's Christmas Eve --The recovery --A night in Acadie --A pair of silk stockings --Nég Créol. v. 2.
