Kate Chopin's stories are set in Southern Louisiana. Her most famous story, The Awakening, was ahead of its time when first published in 1899. In fact, a great backlash was unleashed when she released it. She never published another story after that. Her stories were rediscovered halfway through the 20th century. Their subject matter was forbidden inter-racial love, love of children and suicide.
