This is Volume 3 of Scout Book's new Good Inks series of great American shorts.
Each 32-page volume features a must-read American author juxtaposed with a contemporary illustrator, creating a unique artistic collaboration across the years.
In these four stories, Kate Chopin subtly captures the intricate interior lives of a generation of women. From the famous proto-feminist tale “The Story of an Hour” to the subtly sexy “A Respectable Woman,” Chopin sheds light on the frustrations, desires, and dreams of her own era and their reverberations today.
Artist Gemma Correll’s quirky illustrations provide a perfect modern counterpoint to Chopin’s classic prose.
