The Awakening by Kate Chopin

Over a century old and they're still complaining? Sheesh.

Edna Pontellier was a loose woman of low moral fibre, hardly a model for our youth. We should have them all reading Pamela.

Does the age have something to due with the suitablity?

How about Fanny Hill, Delta of Venus, and the Story of O for the impressionable minds of our youth?

The Awakening by Kate Chopin

The granddaddy (grandma?) of all feminazi novels. The morale, IIRC, is: if you're a housewife, then you might as well as kill yourself since you're living in a hell. What a repulsive piece of trash.
