Newsweek hailed the two-volume opusIn story after story and in all her novels Kate Chopins oracular feminism and prophetic psychology almost outweigh her estimable literary talents. Her revival is both interesting and timely. Now for the first time Seyersteds Complete Works is available in a single-volume paperback.
