There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know; it was too subtle and elusive to name

Nuns, maidens, adventurers – with electricity, The Story of an Hour collects stories of female freedom, as Kate Chopin asks the question: what will emancipation feel like for her, looking at the horizon and the future, to the frontier?
