Ma’ame Pélagie

from Snoozecast

Tonight, we’ll read the short story “Ma'ame Pélagie” written by Kate Chopin [Show-Pan]. Chopin was an American author of short stories and novels based in Louisiana. Her major works were two short story collections (of which this story is found) and two novels. One of those novels, “The Awakening” is what she is best known for today. Snoozecast read an excerpt back in 2019, but it has been much too long since we have read any more from this author. Kate Chopin lived in a variety of locations, based on different economies and societies. These were sources of insights and observations from which she analyzed and expressed her ideas about late 19th-century Southern American society. She based many of her stories and sketches on her life in Louisiana. They expressed her unusual portrayals (for the time) of women as individuals with separate wants and needs. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
