Question

Which of these characters in The Awakening do you think is the most memorable? Choose only one character. Edna Pontellier Léonce Pontellier Adèle Ratignolle Mademoiselle Reisz Robert Lebrun

Answer 1

Answer:

Edna Pontellier

Explanation:

Edna is, without a doubt, the most important, memorable and impacting character in this story, since it is she who needs to go through the "awakening" and name the story as we know it. Edna's dissatisfaction with the life she leads manages to promote the identification of the reader who may find herself in a suffocating and unsatisfactory moment as she does. Edna represents the individuals who need to break free from their limiting lives and run after their own desires and this is what makes her such a memorable character, as all human beings who read about her will find an aspect in their lives that need to free and run after what you really want and that brings happiness and fulfillment.
