Kate Chopin was an American author of novels and short stories exploring themes of womens’ sexuality and independence. The kind of books that keep the Patriarchy up at night.

For example, Edna, the protagonist of The Awakening, had impious thoughts about a man who was not her husband. That hardly seems scandalous today. But at the time the story was written, people clutched their pearls about things like that.

I didn’t have to cut up any sentences in Chopin’s work, but I did break paragraphs. Reading on a screen is very different from reading from a physical book. Without physical limitations of page dimension or the ability to wedge a Kroger receipt in the part where you left off, it can be hard for people who get distracted easily to find their place again.

Scholarly works like On the Origin of Species typically have subheadings to make scanning easier. But in a literary work that doesn’t have them, varying the paragraph length is particularly helpful.

All HTML books from dark mode press are in dark mode by default, but there is a toggle to turn on the light mode option.
